Firefly Lyrics

i went to your bedroom to see you again
to miss you that much and its such a long time
i went to the aisle to marry your soul
to miss you that much

(chorus)
missing you broke my life
hoping that you feel the same
missing you broke my life
its all over now, you've killed me

Fear is compressed in the back of my stomach
the rust in my eyes from my corroded halo
i remember your smile,
distorted and pure
To hold you til' death.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I think this song has a very deep and almost twisted meaning... I think it's basically about a guy remembering his girlfriend that commited suicide or something and he found her... And he wishes that he could remember her for the way she was when she was alive and happy but the image of her dead cold body is engraved on his mind and it's killing him... "i went to the aisle to marry your soul to miss you that much" - that part of the lyric to me means that when he went to the funeral, it totally haunted him and he realised that he wants no one apart from her and death won't stand in the way...like if he died too then they'd be together in soul... like heaven... "missing you broke my life hoping that you feel the same missing you broke my life its all over now, you've killed me" - this means that he is missing her so much that it is breaking him apart...and he hopes that wherever she is...she's missing him too... he believes that there is no point in anyhting anymore because she was his reason for living and now thats gone, it's killed him, he doesn't have a reason to wake up in the morning anymore... " Fear is compressed in the back of my stomach" - he wants to join her but is afraid to kill himself because of he is afraid of what awaits him.. " i remember your smile, distorted and pure To hold you til' death." - this could be talking about when he found her or before that... like maybe there was a smile on her face when he found her but she was dead so it was all "distorted" and this memory will always remain with him till he dies...

This is just what I get from the song... very amazing... InMe rule... Firefly is a strange title for the song...
