Jon Oliva's Pain - Firefly lyrics

As we live our lives like... a flicker of star light On these battle fields... the smell of d**h is real In fear of attack in a night cold and black Show me where I can run... Where no one carries a gun The enemy lines I'm now caught behind Favor neither a side... Show me a place I can hide ... This firefly Try to understand this war Wasn't in my plans... no The fight for freedom and liberty Will go on indefinitely... I know My Life, my home is where I belong Tell me why must this be An unsolved mystery Lives have been lost, who's adding the cost Broken families, left only with memories Of fireflies Now we're facing annihilation, the end to all we know Devastation soon replacing the end to all we grow Can't you see the power and greed That's sure to doom us all They won't rest, now all that's left Is for the world to fall Now I can see my opponents as scared as me I know he feels inside all those things we try to hide The fighting must cease for the world to have peace Live and let live I believe See what it's like to be free You may just find that somewhere in time Together we all will be To live out eternity... as fireflies
