Fireflies Songtext

It doesn't matter who you are
You're Just another superstar
Everybody gets to shine at the hotel bar
With the fireflies half filling the jar
They even trying get free,
Buzzing around is fine with me
That's why I keep one eye on the clock
The other eye on my drink
Making link like a lock, the timing is key
Got my hands tied up, still climbing this tree
Can't none judge what my crisis might be
Everything leaving out when I finally sleep
Tipsy dreaming being a pirate at sea
I hear the sirens singing for someone else to listen
Got me thinking I avoided a bullet
and a lot of my vision was under blurry conditions
I watched from the top of a volcano of bullshit
Which came first? The thirst or the curse?
Most kids distinguish which one is worse
Bartender in a tuxedo shirt, sleeves rolled up
'Cause she's seen enough dirt
Whatever, look I don't know if the ocean is close,
but I'ma keep going till I no longer float
Ay, quit trying macro manage my emotions
Keep the glass half full, and keep the tab open
Last call for alcohol protocol
Television that's attached to the wall
That shows a basketball game with the volume off
I don't know who's playing, but I know I'm not,
Because

I feel like a firefly
I chase all the fireflies
I feel like a firefly
I chase all the fireflies

It doesn't matter what you think
Either ways are relevant
Buzzing from the neon lights it's like a sedative
I follow it in the outer space like an Apollo ship
Close enough to the bottom shelf, boose and the ???
I'm lost, wrote my wrong number on the fire,
Put a dollar in the jukebox, ordered up a shot
And everything is frozen, just floating flickering dots
As we fade into the night, without ever giving a thought but that's the idea
We don't came for the atmosphere
The food is shit, cable's blur but I'm happy here
We're all alone, but ain't nobody keeping ??
'Cause misery is better served with a glass of beer
Yeah, so fill it up and let me soak in it
Smelling like whiskey and complimentary soap
It's the same four walls, and every city got cold
Surrounded by fireflies just trying to find their glow

I feel like a firefly
I chase all the fireflies
I feel like a firefly
I chase all the fireflies
