Firefly - Jon Oliva's Pain

As we live our lives like… a flicker of star light

On these battle fields… the smell of death is real

In fear of attack in a night cold and black

Show me where I can run…

Where no one carries a gun

The enemy lines I’m now caught behind

Favor neither a side… Show me a place I can hide

… This firefly

Try to understand this war

Wasn’t in my plans… no

The fight for freedom and liberty

Will go on indefinitely… I know

My Life, my home is where I belong

Tell me why must this be

An unsolved mystery

Lives have been lost, who’s adding the cost

Broken families, left only with memories

Of fireflies

Now we’re facing annihilation, the end to all we know

Devastation soon replacing the end to all we grow

Can’t you see the power and greed

That’s sure to doom us all

They won’t rest, now all that’s left

Is for the world to fall

Now I can see my opponents as scared as me

I know he feels inside all those things we try to hide

The fighting must cease for the world to have peace

Live and let live I believe

See what it’s like to be free

You may just find that somewhere in time

Together we all will be

To live out eternity… as fireflies
