This song is gorgeous; my favorite from the new album. It's a much more mature sound and for some reason, it reminds me of Thrice post-Vheissu. Not sure why, but I just can't shake that fdeeling.
In regards to meaning, I get a more spiritual feel from it, but I'm not too sure.
Lyrics as I hear them:
Sinking, falling in too deep and I regret it
"I don't know" is all we have left to say
How do we pick ourselves up now
If the clouds bring the rain
Before we evaporate
I'll never be able to say
I love you, I love you
I love you
[Chorus:]
Stay bright, little fireflies
Make light before my eyes
Stay bright, little fireflies
Make light before my eyes.
Thinking about all my regrets and contradictions
Where did I go?
I thought this was the right way
Do I learn to grow up now
Or just fade away under this tree of fame
Or will I be able to say,
I love you, I love you
[Chorus]
And all you do
And all you say
Washes away, away with rain
And all you thought would never change
Washes it away, it'll never be the same
'Cause all I see is
And all I feel
Takes me away, takes me away
And all you do
And all you say
Washes away, away with rain
And all you thought would never change
Washes it away, it'll never be the same
Stay bright, little fireflies
Make light before my eyes
[Chorus]
Wish I could love you
And I don't regret the rain
And now that I'm sinking
I will just say goodbye

i definitely hear a thrice influence in the instrumentation

totally agree. it does remind me a lot of the alchemy index from thrice. especially the wind songs.
