Superchunk - 100,000 Fireflies lyrics

100,000 Fireflies I have a mandolin I play it all night long It makes we want to k** myself I also have a dobro made in some mountain range Seems like a mountain range in love But when I turn up the tone on my electric guitar I'm afraid of the dark without you close to me I went out in the forest and caught 100,000 fireflies As they ricochet round my room they remind me of your starry eyes Someone else might not have made this so sad But this is the worst night I've ever had Cause I'm afraid of the dark without you close to me You won't be happy with me give me one more chance you won't be happy anyway Why do we still live here in this repulsive town When all our friends are in new york Why do we keep shreiking when we mean soft things We should be whispering all the time
