Hailing from stereotypically suburban metro Detroit, Fireworks is comprised of five electric personalities with endless influences. Together they create a unique blend of "infectious, well-written punk with an undeniable sense of melody." They are currently signed to Triple Crown Records and Run For Cover Records.

Glowing Crosses
Fireworks Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

The night is high
My moon is down
And the wolves walk'and walk the town
'Could you see the clouds?
'I'm the'

In the other night just screwing things
Yeah,I felt it growing things

You know I'm barely hanging on?
I'm falling and don't fall on
I can call it cross,cross,cross like a glowing cross

That day I heard songs at the radio
This model is knocking on'
And since you can't get enough
All these ..
I thought I end this song
I thought I just end up
Just end up

In the other night just screwing things
Yeah,I felt it growing things
You know I'm barely hanging on?
I'm falling and don't fall on
I can call it cross,cross,cross like a glowing cross

God has a door for you
But keeps it locked
Man can't walk on water
So I feel so doubt

In the other night just screwing things
Yeah,I felt it growing things
You know I'm barely hanging on?
In the other night just screwing things
Yeah,I felt it growing things
You know I'm barely hanging on?

I'm falling and don't fall on
I can call it cross,cross,cross like a glowing cross

Overall Meaning

The song starts with the singer setting the scene of the night being high and the moon obscured, with wolves roaming the town. The clouds are barely visible as the singer tries to find his way in the darkness. The phrase "I'm the" is repeated twice, giving the listener a sense of uncertainty and perhaps a feeling of being lost. The singer then talks about a moment where he felt something growing inside him and how he's barely holding on. The phrase "I'm falling and don't fall on" reveals the fear of losing control and the struggle to stay balanced.

The song then takes on a religious tone with the mention of a glowing cross. The singer uses the phrase "I can call it cross, cross, cross like a glowing cross" as a way of describing something he doesn't fully understand but realizes is significant. The mention of God having a door but keeping it locked and man not being able to walk on water adds to the feeling of being lost and searching for answers. The song ends with the singer admitting defeat and wanting to just end the song.
