The taste of almonds,
The glint of steel.
Don't you know
how you make me feel?
The end is near,
I see it clear.
Do you see it?
It's in your eyes.
Each life you took,
like Fireflies.
Winked out,
No doubt!

The feel of metal,
on my skin.
Don't you know
where to begin?
Slit my throat,
gouge out my eyes,
just like little
Fireflies.
Pitch black,
a fact.

Point that gun right at my back.
It's all in fun, don't give it back.
The finale is near,
the end that I fear.
Make this easy,
be a dear.
My life is yours,
just take it now.
Remember to give
a final bow.
Seeing you I don't despise,
Those tiny Fireflies
Sparing me?
I don't think so

I must admit
It was quite a show
The love I lost,
The hours it cost,
The time it took,
for this final look,
with blacken eyes
nothing like
the little Fireflies

In the dark,
that does surround.
I hear not but a single sound.
Why did you kill me so?
Just like the hunter and the doe.
But now what will you do with me?
Through my eyes I see it's true,
please tell me can you see it too?
So if you look into the skies,
remember my vexing hazel eyes,
glowing like little Fireflies
