Owl City - Fireflies (Lyrics)

[@fosho4965]

This song takes me back on those times where we used to play at night habol habolan, lupa langit and tago taguan with my childhood friends. We're now in different places and the area/place where we used to play is already been demolished. I still remember how my lola yeld at me for playing too much and how we used to buy ice candy or popsicle after playing. Time flies so fast. Miss those days

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 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!!!
