    The song describes the beauty of seeing billions of fireflies lighting up the night sky as the singer falls asleep. Their lights fill the open air and leave teardrops everywhere. The singer finds it hard to stay awake and would rather believe that the world turns slowly. As fireflies try to teach the singer how to dance, they provide a thousand hugs. The singer saves some fireflies in a jar and finds it difficult to say goodbye to them. Everything seems different when asleep compared to when awake.

    Fireflies Owl City

    You would not relieve your eyes Give my door open just a crack
    If ten billion fireflies (Please stake me away from here)
    Lit up the sky as I fell asleep 'Cause I feel bike such an insomniac
    (Please stake me away from here)
    'Cause they'd find the open air Why do I tire of counting ship
    And leave eardrops everywhere (Please stake me away from here)
    You'd think me nude When I'm far too tired to roll asleep
    But I would just stand and glare
    To ten billion fireflies
    I'd like to let myself believe I'm weird 'cause I hate lullabies
    That Janet Earth turns slowly I got misty eyes as they read farewell
    It's hard to play that I'd rather stay
    Away when I'm asleep But I'll bow where several are
    'Cause everything is always as it seems If my dreams dead real bizarre
    'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a
    'Cause I'd get a thousand rugs bar
    From ten thousand living bugs
    As they tried to reach me how to dance I'd like to let myself believe
    That Janet Earth turns slowly
    A foxtrot above my bread It's hard to play that I'd rather stay
    A rock hop beneath my bed Away when I'm asleep
    A disco ball is just banging by a thread 'Cause everything is always as it seems
    When I roll asleep
    I'd like to let myself believe
    That Janet Earth turns slowly I'd like to let myself believe
    It's hard to play that I'd rather stay That Janet Earth turns slowly
    Away when I'm asleep It's hard to play that I'd rather stay
    'Cause everything is always as it seems Away when I'm asleep
    When I roll asleep Because my dreams are roasting at the
    seams
    KEY:
    Fireflies Owl City
    you would not believe your eyes because my dreams are bursting at the
    if ten million fireflies seams
    lit up the world as I fell asleep
    cuz they fill the open air
    and leave teardrops everywhere
    you think me rude, but I would just stand
    and stare

    I’d like to make myself believe


    that planet Earth turns slowly
    it’s hard to say that I’d rather stay awake
    when I’m asleep
    cause everything is never as it seems

    cause I get a thousand hugs


    from ten thousand lightning bugs
    as they try to teach me how to dance
    a foxtrot above my head
    a sockhop beneath my bed
    the disco ball is just hanging by a thread
    (thread, thread)

    I’d like to make myself believe


    that planet Earth turns slowly
    it’s hard to say that I’d rather stay awake
    when I’m asleep
    cause everything is never as it seems
    (when i fall asleep)

    leave my door open just a crack (please


    take me away from here)
    cause I feel like such an insomniac (please
    take me away from here)
    why do I tire of counting sheep? (please
    take me away from here)
    when I’m far to tired to fall asleep

    to ten million fireflies


    I’m weird cause iI hate goodbyes
    I got misty eyes as they said farewell
    but I know where several are
    if my dreams get real bizarre
    cause I saved a few and I keep 'em in a jar

    I’d like to make myself believe


    that planet Earth turns slowly
    it’s hard to say that id rather stay awake
    when I’m asleep
    cause everything is never as it seems
    (when I fall asleep)*2

    I’d like to make myself believe


    that planet Earth turns slowly
    it’s hard to say that id rather stay awake
    when I’m asleep
