Arcane Roots - Fireflies lyrics

I wish I could sympathise But I don’t I see you with child eyes Never no more How I wish it’d be dignified But it’s no use And I’ll sing for a simple life While I swing from the noose The noose, the noose, the noose We’re falling like fireflies Strayed from the shore Waiting to realise We’re caught in the storm All of your compromise And all of your talk Will fade out with no surprise And swallow you whole Enough, enough Delicate your innocence Waiting for the click of design Navigate your fingertips Watch the apple fall from his eye So down we came into your home Taking all our scriptures desire Never were you all alone All we want’s a piece of the quiet But we’re falling like fireflies Strayed from the shore Waiting to realise We’re caught in the storm All of your compromise And all of your talk Will fade out with no surprise And swallow you whole So don’t you feel the colours as they fade? Ripples in an ocean of the same Stripped of all the wonder and your name So help me forget Help me forget (that I’m falling for it) Now we’re falling like fireflies Who strayed from the shore Waiting to realise We’re caught in the storm And all of your compromise And all of your talk Will fade out with no surprise And swallow you whole You know, you know, you know You know, you know
