Lyrics Fireflies - Marjorie -W.C. Sinclair

If 10 more million fireflies
Would light the world outside my bed
Can't make a world from mine
A life my babygurl not tryna live
She locked her eyes with mine
And hers would glisten like a diamond did
She heated up the house
Got cold alone nights in the Dimond District

Movement like a flying fish might jump right in the lake
Way she'd take my breath a diver girl free dive no scuba tank
My girl a sea life scientist she tryna save the coral reef
And raise awareness bout a proxy war in rural North Korea

Advertising silence every move was seen plain sight
Knowing I'd die just like Orion's constellation in the sky
She fell in love with getting caught was always lying in my face
And so did I cz all the ways she made it up to me were crazy

New York City trip in March
She lied and took off work for me
Those 20 days gave all the time I wasted so much purpose
What hides behind her soul
Might be the only thing worth earning
When I asked bout her life goals
She said don't know but they been working

She said those 4 syllables
And took the time to sound out every letter
I said love you more and she would tell me OK bet
So you cu remember what I wore the day
I met you way back then
Or did all the years of separation to progress make you forget

It was a rhinestone tiger shirt I think
With jeans and that Moschino belt
We went to 1010 Pine West Oakland and danced away the heat
I can't remember what we got at Goodwill
Let me try retrace my steps
Replay the memories of days before our eyes had ever met

While 10 million fireflies
Light the world outside my bed
She can't make a world from mine
Theres not a single one she'd like to live
Her lip gloss reapplied
Would shine and glisten like a diamond did
She heated up the house
It got cold alone nights in the Dimond District
She said 4 more syllables
Took the time to sound out every letter
I said love you more and would jus tell me OK bet
So you cu remember what I wore the day I met you way back then
Did all the years of separation to progress make you forget

And if 10 more million fireflies
Would light the world outside my bed
You could make a world from mine
The only life babygurl tryna live
When she locked her eyes with mine
Her pupils glistened like a diamond did
I Don't believe in destiny
But manifestment might be real

This might be real
But don't think about it
Lost a million moments focusing on what I didn't have
Fought the feeling let emotions control every word and action
Take the chance to do this right
And I could make this would mah clammy
She said she got a plan if I don't mind commitment
She talked bout prophecy I talked bout books of genesis
We fought the wave like Noah's Ark all spices every sex
She said fuck the condom
I wan feel you deep in every inch
Later baby better yet let's talk
Exchange some knowledge with me
She asked me what made it rain said I forgot
Sumn bout evaporation condensation in the sky
She said baby that's all fake
There's so much more to it then science
So much more to it then pride
The way she talks with passion
I was so inspired by the world she made
And let me live inside
Had me feeling like if hell is real
If it's with her I wouldn't mind

We watched 10 more million fireflies
Light up the world outside the shed
She made her own world outta mine and set it all on fire
Her eyes made way to mine
Her pupils glistening like a diamond did
Crying tears of broken heart from her destructive way of life
I need a sign from you say something when it's time
And I'll be ready for you no pressure thou think for a while
But she said the ghost in her reflection terrified her
More than death cz living life alone was destined for her mind
And she was sent into a spiral
So was I had lost control
Tried grabbing anything in sight to fix the boats to get us home
She found an emerald in the waterfall
That'd change our course of motion
Now with fortune on our side let's try this thing again
Suppose that there were 10 more million fireflies
That'd light the world outside
She said baby we'd never know
Let's take this chance to leave the county
She made my oyster of a world
Taste better with some lime and lemon
Let her know
She's worth more then what anyone could try and tell her

10 Million fireflies lit up the world outside the shed
Her eyes would shine and glisten like a diamond did
She said if not in yours
Then there's not any life I'd like to live
Said baby I'm just tryna live
So don't take this from
If you do just know ill die from it
