Fireflies

[Intro]
ここは怪獣でこきょうくすら。今日もうないです。
Please don't tell anyone what I said, the last thing I need is for people knowing what scares me

[Verse 1]
If 10 more million fireflies lit up the world outside my bed
Can't make a world from mine, a life my baby girl not tryna live
She locked her eyes with mine and hers would glisten like a diamond did
She heated up the house, got cold, alone nights in the Dimond District

[Verse 2]
Movement like a flying fish might jump right in the lake (Wow!)
Way she'd take my brеath a diver girl free dive no scuba tank
My girl a sea lifе scientist she tryna save the coral reef
And raise awareness 'bout a proxy war in rural North Korea

[Verse 3]
Baby make good use of silence, makin' moves in si-
Knowing I'd die just like Orion's constellation in the sky
She fell in love with getting caught was always lying in my face
And so did I, 'cause all the ways she made it up to me were crazy

[Verse 4]
New York City trip in March, she lied and took off work for me
Those 20 days gave all the time I wasted so much purpose
'Cause what hides behind her soul might be the only thing worth earning
And when I asked bout her life goals, she said, don't know, but they been working

[Verse 5]
She said those 4 syllables and took the time to spell out every letter
I said, love you more, and she would tell me, OK bet
So you could tell me what I wore the day I met you way back then
Or did all the years of separation to progress make you forget?

[Verse 6]
It was a rhinestone tiger shirt I think, with jeans and that Moschino belt
We went to 1010 Pine West Oakland and danced away the heat
I can't remember what we got at Goodwill, let me try retrace my steps
Replay the memories of days before our eyes had ever met

[Verse 7]
While 10 more million fireflies light up the world outside my bed
She can't make a world from mine, there's not a single one she'd like to live
Her lip gloss reapplied would shine and glisten like a diamond did
She heated up the house, it got cold, alone nights in the Dimond District
She said 4 more syllables she took the time to spell out every letter
I said, love you more, and she would just tell me, OK bet
So you could tell me what I wore the day I met you way back then
Or did all the years of separation to progress make you forget?

[Verse 8]
And if 10 more million fireflies lit up the world outside my bed
You could make a world from mine the only life baby girl tryna live
When she locked her eyes with mine, her pupils glistened like a diamond did
I said I don't believe in destiny but manifestment might be real

[Verse 9]
This might be real but don't think about it (Yeah!)
Lost a million moments focusing on what I didn't have (Damn it!)
Fought the feeling let emotions control every word and action
Take the chance to do this right and I could make this would my clammy
She said she got a plan if I don't mind commitment
She talked bout prophecy I talked bout books of genesis (Hehe)
We fought the wave like Noah's Ark all spices every sex
She said fuck the condom, I wanna feel you deep in every inch (Please)
Later baby better yet let's talk, exchange some knowledge with me
She asked me what made it rain said I forgot
Something bout evaporation condensation in the sky
And she said baby that's all fake there's so much more to it than science
So much more to it then pride the way she talks with passion
I was so inspired by the world she made and let me live inside
Had me feeling like if hell is real if it's with her I wouldn't mind (Wow!)

[Verse 10]
As we watched 10 more million fireflies light up the world outside the shed
She made her own world outta mine and set it all on fire
Her eyes made way to mine her pupils glistening like a diamond did
Crying tears of broken heart from her destructive way of life (Please, tell me)
I need a sign from you say something when it's time
And I'll be ready for you, no pressure though, so think for a while (Alright)
But she said the ghost in her reflection terrified her more than death 'cause living life alone was destined for her (Hehe)
Then she was sent into a spiral, so was I, had lost control
Tried grabbing anything in sight to fix the boats that'd get us home
She found an emerald in the waterfall that'd change our course of motion
Now with fortune on our side let's try this thing again (Let's go)
Suppose that there were 10 more million fireflies that'd light the world outside
She said baby we'd never know, let's take this chance to leave the county
She made my oyster of a world taste better with some lime and lemon
Let her know she's worth more then what anyone could try and tell her

[Verse 11]
(I have heard enough)
10 million fireflies lit up the world outside the shed (No!!) (Are you injured?)
Her eyes would shine and glisten like a diamond did (Damn it!)
She said if not in yours then there's not any life I'd like to live
She said baby I'm just tryna live so don't take this from me
If you do, just know I'll die from it

[Outro]
Please don't tell anyone what I said, the last thing I need is for people knowing what scares me
Promise me you won't tell a soul what you know!
I promise...
Thanks. Now would you get me a glass of water?
