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
You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep
They 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
When I fall asleep
When I fall asleep
When I fall asleep
To ten million fireflies
I'm weird cause I hate goodbyes
I got misty eyes as they said farewell
They 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
When I fall asleep
When I fall asleep
