Burned Firefly...
I was just a firefly
With a desire to burn
I wanted to be like the fire
That can light up the whole world
My heart filled with this desire
I was shining as I reached the fire
The Flame grabbed my wings
And they disappeared like they were nothing
Falling to the ground
My friends calling me mad
Trying to shine brighter
I lost the light I had
Didn't want anything more
Just wanted to be a little different
Just wanted to be something more
Than just a little insect
Now I'm a burned firefly
I lost the speciality I had
Maybe I should be called a fly
Because of the fire I now lack ...
