[Intro – ambient, slow build] [4-bar guitar instrumental] [softly sung/whispered] The fields were quiet, stripped of breath No wings, no song, just hints of death But somewhere deep beneath the cries... A flicker wakes in buried skies [Clean vocals enter, softly] The dark forgets the light it stole But even ash remembers whole [Verse 1] I watched the sky forget to burn Ashes on the breeze return Flickers in the silence, born again Like ghosts that learned to shine within Their wings were cracked, but now they glow Above the ruins, soft and slow Each light a prayer we left unsaid A spark reborn inside the dead [Pre-Chorus] Can you feel them climbing through the dusk? A choir rising from the rust [Chorus] We are resurrected fireflies (dead) Falling stars with open eyes (resurrected) Dancing through the graveyard air (and flying) In broken swarms of answered prayers (...and dying) No more silence, no more lies (dead) We were dim, but now we rise (resurrected) We burned, we drowned, we learned to fly (and flying) Resurrected fireflies (...and dying) [Verse 2] We drifted under shattered moons Singing to the sun too soon Every flash a bleeding truth A lullaby for faded youth They called us gone, they called us lost But we were just the embered frost Now even in this midnight rain Our wings remember flame [Pre-Chorus] Can you see them lighting up the past? A signal flare that’s built to last [Chorus] We are resurrected fireflies (dead) Falling stars with open eyes (resurrected) Dancing through the graveyard air (and flying) In broken swarms of answered prayers (...and dying) No more silence, no more lies (dead) We were dim, but now we rise (resurrected) We burned, we drowned, we learned to fly (and flying) Resurrected fireflies (...and dying) [Bridge – instrumental swell with choral layering] (We are the sparks that outlived the dark...) (We are the light they could never mark...) (We are the ones who still ignite...) (...in the hollow of the night) [Final Chorus – half tempo to full] We are resurrected fireflies (dead) Born to fall and born to rise (resurrected) Through the blackened summer air (and flying) We flicker on in whispered prayer (...and dying) No more silence, no more lies (dead) We were dim, but now we rise (resurrected) From the ash, we chase the sky (and flying) Resurrected fireflies (...and dying) [Outro – fading, minimalist piano and reverb] [Soft whisper, barely audible] We lit the dark with nothing left... A spark that lived beyond its death [Last sung line, clean falsetto or layered vocal] Still shining... in the ruin’s breath. [End]
