This track the oldest of the bunch. It's a nostalgic tune about the immense joy that comes with having feelings for someone but the paradigm shift that happens when things start to get sticky. It's very happy/sad. Cry with a smile on your face.
lyrics
Wide awake, it’s the loneliest day of my life
And I’m way too exhausted
to try and revise all the things that I should’ve said tonight
I’m okay with living like I’ll never die
So pass the smokes, I’m relapsing tonight
You know
Do you want me? I don’t fucking think so
But you and I are like the first time I saw fireflies
I’m upset and I’m stressed
I can’t believe I got this bad
I’m standing ankle deep in snow that I just threw up in
West Virginia, what a fucking night
There’s no snow here but I’m puking up
Outside the show
Do you want me? I don’t fucking think so
But you and I are like the first time I saw fireflies
You shine so bright
You light up my entire life
Except the nights
when you don’t want to love me like tonight
Outside the show
Do you want me? I already know you don't
Tonight, it's like the first time I saw fireflies
You shine so bright
You light up my entire life
Except the nights
when you don’t want to love me like tonight
Tonight
I always feel this way at night
and I will never ever get to call you mine
