Fireflies

The hope is gone

It’s no surprise

We thought in the dark

We’d be fireflies


But all dreams

Are made of  lies

Oops! There goes the busted bubble

Isn’t the feeling nice?


The silver lining

Just blends with the grey

As all ends

Begin to fray


Oh stop

I’m done

Your complaining

Isn’t fun


BECAUSE


Sometimes lies should be told

You never know when they become your truth

You are your own master

You are your own sleuth


So if the silver lining’s

Been painted to grey

just take a bit of white

And wipe it away


Cause the hope is here to stay

Surprise surprise

In the dark

We are fireflies
