🎤 Lyrics: Owl City - Fireflies 🎵
You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep
'Cause they'd fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude
But I would just stand and stare
I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
From ten thousand lightning bugs
As they tried to teach me how to dance
A foxtrot above my head
A sock hop beneath my bed
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread
(Thread, thread...)
I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
(When I fall asleep)
Leave my door open just a crack
(Please take me away from here)
'Cause I feel like such an insomniac
(Please take me away from here)
Why do I tire of counting sheep?
(Please take me away from here)
When I'm far too tired to fall asleep
(Ha-ha)
To ten million fireflies
I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
I got misty eyes as they said farewell
(Said farewell)
But I'll know where several are
If my dreams get real bizarre
'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar
(Jar, jar, jar...)
I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems (when I fall asleep)
I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems (when I fall asleep)
I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
Because my dreams are bursting at the seams

Time really does flies fast.. and sometimes you just want to experience it all again.. I miss that time in my childhood, where I use to stay up all night, either drawing, reading myself stories, watching the moon and stars outside the balcony and playing with my parents.. this song is somehow so nostalgic, like the first time I ever heard of this song, it already felt like I was connected to the song. This song is my comfort song and I always listen to it everytime I'm going through hard times or just because I'm bored

[@StrangeScaryNewEngland]

I can't feel nostalgic for this song since the entire thing is sung with autotune. Nostalgic music for me did not have autotune or computerized sound effects.

This song brings wholesome calm vibes. Never gets old.

[@blackcat8104]

This song feels so safe and warm. It takes me back to my great grandmothers old house, with a massive yard and thousands of fireflies flying around in the summer, the sound of crickets chirping. Back when the whole family still got together every year for holidays. Back when everyone still celebrated and decorated for holidays. So safe, so cozy. So nostalgic. Everytime I hear this song, I just can't figure out how he manages to evoke such nostalgia and still feel like being wrapped in a warm fuzzy blanket straight out of the dryer in the winter.

Dear stranger, I’m writing this to tell you that you’re not alone in this universe... it’s okay to feel down for a moment in life, but always remember that the light will come and everything has a solution even if we feel like there isn’t... if you are studying now and you feel lost or cannot concentrate, please do not compare yourself to others. You don’t know anything about them and the same for you. Take a break. Laugh. Enjoy your alone time and cherish yourself. And please never forget that everyone in this world shine but each one of us has a different light. You don’t have to be like any other person. Love yourself! Love your alone time and enjoy this journey in life! It’s short so make the most out of it! All my love and support for the ones who are struggling!!!
