lyrics
Flickering light of temptation
Failure in disguise
Soft wings beat for entry
Insistent fireflies
Though I close the door to block the glimmer,
I know it’s still there
It calls me
But my eye avoids the crack
Because if I chance a sideways glance
I’m helpless to hold back
Though I close the door to block the glimmer,
I know it’s still there
Flickering light of temptation
The comfort I despise
Alluring and repulsive
Outshines the bluest skies
Though I close the door to block the glimmer,
I know it’s still there
Failure in disguise
Soft wings beat for entry
Insistent fireflies
Though I close the door to block the glimmer,
I know it’s still there
It calls me
But my eye avoids the crack
Because if I chance a sideways glance
I’m helpless to hold back
Though I close the door to block the glimmer,
I know it’s still there
Flickering light of temptation
The comfort I despise
Alluring and repulsive
Outshines the bluest skies
Though I close the door to block the glimmer,
I know it’s still there
