[Verse 1]
Hold me closer
You're my supernova
In the dark, leave me frozen
Better yet, cut me open, open
[Bridge 1]
Just let me go, it's not that difficult
Be gentle, girl, I'm not invincible
It's obvious you're not the sober type
But still, you drink like you can't feel nothing else
You won't get over yourself
[Pre-Chorus]
Isn't it like you to make me forget
Isn't it like you to fuck with my head
It's just not like you to get up and leave
Let's make this simple and sweet
You're just not that into me
[Chorus]
It's you and I, in the night, firefly
It's you and I, do or die, firefly
It's you and I, in the night, firefly
It's you and I, you and I, yeah
[Verse 2]
Can't control ya
But now, I need closure
Late at night, call me over
With your head on my shoulders, oh, yeah
[Bridge 2]
You let me go, wasn't that difficult
You turn away like I'm invisible
It's obvious, you get what you want in life
But still, these words sound differently in my head
Am I not over you yet?
[Pre-Chorus]
Isn't it like you to make me forget
Isn't it like you to fuck with my head
It's just not like you to get up and leave
Let's make this simple and sweet
You're just not that into me
[Chorus]
It's you and I, in the night, firefly
It's you and I, do or die, firefly
It's you and I, in the night, firefly
It's you and I, you and I, yeah
[Outro]
I let you go, it wasn't difficult
You let me down, now I'm invincible
'Cause after dark, we see the brighter side
Firefly, firefly
