🎤 Lyrics: Owl City - Fireflies 🎵
You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep
'Cause they'd fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd 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'd get a thousand hugs
From ten thousand lightning bugs
As they tried to teach me how to dance
A foxtrot above my head
A sock hop beneath my bed
A 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 too tired to fall asleep
(Ha-ha)
To ten million fireflies
I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
I got misty eyes as they said farewell
(Said farewell)
But I'll know where several are
If my dreams get real bizarre
'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar
(Jar, jar, jar...)
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)
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)
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
Because my dreams are bursting at the seams

This song literally was my childhood and it played on the radio so much in like 2009
The song came out in 2010 ????
Same
i was born in 2009😂😂

I graduated high school in 2009 but this song came out like late 2009
This song will never get old. Carry it on to the next generation
I JUST HEARD THIS IN THE STORE
I will I’m gonna say to my future kids “in the good ol’ days I heard these songs”
That’s what the adults say
Most likely ;v;
Well it did pass on so this could potentially reach the next generation
I won't let you down
yessir
Is it weird to say I find this song happy and depressing at the same time?
It`s called nostalgia
@@NK-tu4vh I like that word😳
yasssssss
I mean kinda. But that's not a bad thing!! I'm weird to!🖤🖤🖤
Not at all, its such a heartwarming and relatable song that we emotionally connect to from previous memories we had listening to it ❤
Any one in 2024 here?
Edit: 2k likes, seems like this song is still famous which is expected

Dear reader, I don't know you and you don't know me. Probably we are not even living in the same country. We look different. We speak different languages. Maybe we are from entirely different generations. We are just complete strangers. But there is something that connects us. We both have great taste in music Thank you for being here. God bless you, whoever you are.
:)i like music like this
And God bless you to
God bless you too
Yes indeed we do 🙂😌
May the god bless you too. :D
This song is both sad and invigorating at the same time. I think it's because it reminds me of the energy we used to have as kids that we can’t muster anymore. You feel it come rushing back with the chorus but it's just a memory and isn't really there - like a dream, as the song puts it.
Is it odd to say i get that exact feeling even though im a kid?
@@BewugaFish I really can’t say. It reminds me of middle school dances.

@Jaina Caduan yea the whole song is about an teenager getting nostalgia and playing with his old toys like in the music video
I am sobbing just like you I haven’t heard this song in like so many years
@@footfoot3859 i remember I heard it in a animation long, long ago, and i kept listening to it but at one point I just stopped. At the time of writing this comment i randomly remembered it, searched it and i cried from nostalgia.
I'm leaving this comment here so after a month or a year when someone likes it, I get reminded of this song
Zure
Lmao
Come back and listen to the song
I remember my uncle coming to visit me at the hospital... I was there for 1 year straight. And he showed me this song and got me earphones. And i used to listen to this for the whole night, in hope that the next day, the test is going to be negative of infection and i can go home... I cried to it, laughted to it, sung it and now I just found it... Im in tears. I am out of the hospital for a really long time and my health is a lot better now. Now im listening and I could tell how much the lyrics were relatable. They still are.. Just in a diffrent way
If you don’t mind me asking, why were you in the hospital?
@@3vathew4rrior61 it's probably a personal thing or something
@@monalideb9783 yeah maybe I shouldn’t have asked

When you were little and you didn’t understand any lyrics but not you realize how freaking whimsical this song is
Omg, exactly my thoughts
When I was a kid I would run around singing about butterfly's, learned that it was not butterfly's. Oh well
Idk I got meth usage vibes from it hearing it grown up more.
i'm actually still little and i understand it...

The amount of nostalgia I get from this song is immaculate

It isn't nostalgia, something inside knows what it's lyrics mean
I found this song from my music class when I was 10, and I still listen to it >:3
This used to be my son’s favorite song in elementary school. He’s 21 now. Where does the time go? 😢
😖🥺🥺🥺🥺
Oh hi he’s the same age as me 😁
did you get something in that comment messed up? elementary school age is from 5 to 6, so that's 14-15 years ago. this song came out 13 years ago
sorry when i see something that sounds wrong i tend to mention it
edit: when i made this comment i misunderstood elementary as what is meant by the word kindergarten, i am now well aware that i made an interpretation error
@@_apsis Nah i was thinking the same thing. I am 21 and I I was not in elemtry school when this came out lol
oop
Who would've thought a song would be this innocent.
I guess it is innocent but it is about is struggles with a sleeping disorder though. I think the fireflies are supposed to represent sleeping pills.
@@kerryntaylor7215 tbh as an insomniac myself the fireflies can be a lot of things. It can be just his thoughts that make him awake during night, or even the "dots" that look like fireflies when we're with our eyes open in the dark. Although I personally interpret the fireflies as simply being his dreams that he has when hes finally asleep (since he sings "lit up the world as I fell asleep"/"But I'll know where several are if my dreams get real bizarre"), and that the reason he gets to amazed by the fireflies is because hes amazed and happy that he was finally able to fall asleep for some time. But again, that's just my personal interpretation as an insomniac lol
@@kerryntaylor7215 Officially the fireflies are meant to represent shooting stars. But yeah the song overall is about insomnia, but not in a negatiive way, rather the typical "can't sleep, let's use this opportunity to stargaze!"
So the song indirectly is about "making the best of a situation" (that's how I interpret the official explanation of the song).
Positive through and through.
Us, as kids: Pfft, why do old people keep listening to songs that are 50 or 60 years old?
Us, now: *remembers everything from 2010 while sobbing* WE WERE SO YOUNG!
Haha yep! Although I grew up listening to old songs

At least when planet earth is blown up
When this song came out I worked at Ikea and everytime i did my shift and took the bus, i just popped my earphones and put this song on. What a time ...

Wait what's with tiktok? Did they use this song again? - _ -
I'm not from tiktok, I don't even use it.

as a kid, i used to catch fireflies and keep them in a jar. theyd only last a week though. i remember talking to them each day pretending they could hear me. I pretended that they had conversations with me. when i was sad or mad, they would always comfort me without comforting me. i remember showing them games and pretending that they could play with them. it was a few years ago when i heard this song and when i first heard this song, i cried. i cried for no reason. but it reminded me of those fun memories. those glorious memories that ill remember for the rest of my life. this song will always have a special place in my heart, if i played with fireflies or not. we are too lucky to have owl city. that band is so awesome.
thats adorable
Your comment is making me cry-
awwwwww
Aw that’s cute 🥰 I believe that fireflies have feelings too
Fun for u but the fire flies having nightmare u should not keep them in jar because they can't breathe let them free or owl city will fk u in the city
My son used to love this song when he was little ❤
Each firefly is a different childhood memory.

This song is one of the “old but gold” songs. When I heard this once again many memories flash backed and I cried. I wish I could turn back being a child, A kid that doesn’t have any problem or not even care about the world.
I am
I am LAST DAY OF MAY LMAO
I’m in June
LPS, Lego Mario stop motion, I remember when the world wasn't burning down 😢

I just discovered this song unintentionally. I love it.
I'm glad you did mate. This song is my Childhood 😥
This music shows happiness , but deep inside its full of sadness
You are clearly wrong it's all about sadness no happiness at all here
I don't get how being not be able to sleep is happy
@@HawkyRed I find happiness from this cuz it reminds me of when I was younger and how life was so simple and fun... But I don't find happiness in the lyrics no, they're quite sad 😔
@Owen Epstein the dam song is about desire .there solve

Him fantasizing and sleeping is better than his life. He looks forward to them more and finds peace and happiness only when he sleeps
This song is my childhood. Not only did I love hearing it on the radio as a kid, but it makes me remember the times when I'd go out in the yard on a summer night and watch the fireflies till I had to come in. Man, this nostalgia is beautiful and painful at the same time.
The most nostalgic song in history, the cheer of an entire generation. 🥲
Best song 2024 if your here in 2024 July 👇 comment
AUGUST BUT CLOSING
these lyrics always hit different whenever my chronic illnesses flare up. this song has that delirious, desperate bed-bound feeling. food doesnt put itself on the table, life doesnt wait for me to heal...
💕💕💕💕💕

Honkai Star Rail brought me here.
Fudge! Me too!
Wow. I remember all of the good times my neighbor and I would have, late summer nights, rocking out to this song as we played outdoors and had sleepovers and you know, were just being kids. This song hits me really hard at the moment, transporting me back to a time where I was happy, and life was simple.
Here I am now, about to turn 18, longing for the old days where things were simply better, before ... life happened. Things weren't supposed to turn out this way, I wasn't prepared to lose everything due to some degenerative chronic disorder that tuns kn my family. I was able to handle the mental health crisis many teens hit, and am doing better in that regard, but man have I been blindsided.
I miss those days with my neighbor so much. Remember when the world was so much fun, when everything was interesting and exciting, when you could actually smile and laugh, living in the moment, being who you are without any other care in the world? Back when I could just run, move, go ride bikes, play tag, draw with chalk, do the stupidest "challenges" we made for each other? I have some very strong memories connected with this song, which is why hearing it hurts so much.
I remember watching fireworks on the 4th of July, listening to the speaker blaring this song. I remember looking up at the stars one summer night, this song blaring in my head, grateful I'd made it back to the "base" and was safe because the neighborhood kids were all playing hide-and-seek-tag and we were too sneaky for them, so they all teamed up on me and my neighbor friend. I remember my neighbor was so obsessed with it, we made an entire dance routine to this song and performed it to our parents. I remember having a sleepover, sitting in her room late at night, messing with our stuffed animals, listening to this song over the speakers of her iPad. I remember laying in my own bed at night, listening to this song on loop, my mind blossoming with the images described in the song. I remember when my neighbor found a parody of this song we laughed over WAY too much. I remember when I saw my first firefly, on vacation to Vermont, and I finally understood the scene the song described. I remember jumping in the bouncy castle, trying to touch the ceiling with my friend at our community block party, the song almost blasting my ears off from over those speakers they set up right next to the bouncy house. I remember being at peace, content with life, willing to roll with the good and bad times, able to be happy.
I still remember all of the lyrics. The magic of this song has not faded, even if the rest of the life I knew around it did.
Thank you so much for this song. Music is one part of myself that I *can* preserve.
I'm crying now, this is too bittersweet for me, too many happy memories, back when it was all okay. Why can't it be okay.. why did it have to end like this
why do you only have 5 likes?
@@1cool Because I write a lot and people don't like to read, and also because I am unusually open about the hell my life is
@@KDragoness I understand your pain I am more of a modern child so I'm not as knowledgeable on the whole thing but thanks for putting this. It makes sense, life is a lot more complicated than back then as you said it was peaceful life was full of freedom in which you could do (almost) anything. Anyways I did read the whole thing because I'm kinda weird and like when people really talk about things peacefully, goodbye and have a good life.
@@FrighteningScares Yeah, growing up is difficult as the world becomes more mundane and less exciting. It stings me in particular though because I'm sick and will stay sick- I'm already considered handicapped and my collagen protein will continue to degenerate :(
Most memories of this songs have movement and energy at the core, and I don't and won't have either of those for the rest of my life unless someone develops a cure, rest in piece my perfect transcript (I was ready to be valedictorian before this onset despite everything else going on in life, 2nd semester 11th grade at a rigorous college-prep school lol) and all of the plans for my future. I missed school to the point they tried to call me truant and kicked me out. So all of my peers are moving on without me this May, and I'm at a special school for the district rejects like me. I have no energy and can't think with the pain this disorder causes, both physical and emotional. So I wanted my high school diploma? To go to college, get a job, find a significant other? Travel, explore, volunteer, indulge in my (many) hobbies? It's almost funny to think I'd made plans.
Thankfully I can still type on mobile or with a flat keyboard, have to make sure my fingers don't dislocate... I can technichally still write my novels, and I can do craft stuff and once my elbow heals (nerve damage, long story, long recovery) since small movements aren't too painful and don't use up all of my stamina, but I don't have much overall energy to do either of those things with, I usually sleep or play stupid games on my phone because that's all I can physically do.
@@KDragoness I have never seen anyone other than you who has been hit by so many hindrances during their time, I'm sorry to hear that. (I thought my school life was tough trying to stay top tier in my classes) You have had things happen that have completely stopped you from progressing in life. I am not the wisest person ever but I can tell you now that you can keep going, don't give up because then you will never have a chance to find a way out of the pit your in. ( I'm sure you already know this) You may be stuck in a position where you feel as if nothing will change, as if it's all over but it's not persevere be determined and maybe one day a cure will be made, but if not there are many other things you can do in life that also can be lucrative/fun to your liking. As I've said, you have probably heard all of this before but I just want to say i'm sorry again because it's awful to see what situation you are in but at least you are still here, living life not necessarily to the fullest but to a degree. Some people may have already given up already but you haven't. But I digress... Continue fighting.
This was my favourite song back then when I was younger and it still is.
SAME ❤❤❤❤
Same and it takes me back
This song is just a vibe honestly
Same ❤❤❤❤
Same,,,brings back memories
This song came out when I was 10 years old back when life was simple, carefree and I felt happy all the time - I made myself believe that planet Earth turned slowly. Now I'm just a ball of depression who hates the world and the unfairness of life - please take me away from here. Time has changed everything. I miss my grandma more than anything too - I got misty eyes as she said farewell.
❤❤❤
We feel the same bro… feel the same
Times back then we’re simple. We didn’t care what happened. No one had questions. Nothing wrong happened. Life was good.
I’m sorry for your loss. We have to keep living no matter how many skies have fallen. ❤️
Im sorry
