Throw the towel in
Write the poison letter
Burn the place down
Let's make it better
Pour the fuel in
Make the carpet wetter
Let's make it better
Tiny thumb-wheel
Slide across the metal
Little yellow box
Lets' make it better
And if the wind blows
Then it's gone forever
Little firefly
Let's make it better
I think we made it better
Little firefly, I think we made it better
Write the poison letter
Burn the place down
Let's make it better
Pour the fuel in
Make the carpet wetter
Let's make it better
Tiny thumb-wheel
Slide across the metal
Little yellow box
Lets' make it better
And if the wind blows
Then it's gone forever
Little firefly
Let's make it better
I think we made it better
Little firefly, I think we made it better

Surely it's not as morbid as suicide and it's just some good old fashioned literal arson...
Oh and isn't it "light the poisoned letter"
So poetically wonderful though!!! Little firefly...what an endearing name for your lighter. I think this truly encompasses the writer's ability to write from the position of someone so deranged (or he truly is insane). It's beautiful... his lighter, his only friends, it seems.
