"Fireflies" lyrics

Smashing Pumpkins Lyrics

"Fireflies"

We stand out on a clover shield
Hunted, yet unloved
Seasick as one preys
Through tasteless, dray haze

I'm waiting on your fireflies (Fireflies)
To illume your lantern bright (Bright)
Pound fool and penny-wise
Waiting on your fireflies (Fireflies)
'Cause some dreams do survive
Wise, ain't I?

Daunted 'midst ghoulish brides
Embracing on glassed sand
We should clasp hands
Come cherish where I stand

I'm waiting on your fireflies (Fireflies)
To illume your lantern bright (Bright)
Pound fool and penny-wise
Waiting on your fireflies (Fireflies)
'Cause some dreams do survive
Wise, ain't I?
