Fireflies
Velian Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Trapping sunlight in a net
Shadows dancing all around on the solitary ground
To the sunset bound
When there is no road to take
You should not fear to go astray
When in doubt just ask your heart
When the fireflies are dancing
And the winds of changes chanting
In the air
A gust of despair
Where did they go
They left us forlorn
With the memory
In our hollow minds
Of the trance
And their hypnotic dance
We sit and stare at the night
Silhouette in dying light (in dying light)
Darkness falling all around on the solitary ground
To the night we are bound
When there is no road to take
You should not fear to go astray
When in doubt just ask your heart
And it will lead you from the dark
In an endless sea of choices
Listen to your inner voices
When there is no road to take
You should not fear to go astray
When in doubt just ask your heart
And it will lead you from the dark
When the fireflies are dancing
And the winds of changes chanting
Velian's song "Fireflies" seems to be a reflection on the process of finding one's way in life when there may not be a clear path. The mesmerizing lights of the fireflies in the first verse symbolize the allure of the unknown, capturing the imagination and leading us forward. The shadows dancing suggest potential danger or uncertainty, as we step into the solitary unknown. However, the message of the chorus is to trust one's heart to guide us through the darkness. The winds of change are an unstoppable force, but the fireflies represent a source of light and hope amid the uncertainty.
The second verse suggests a sense of loss and sadness when the fireflies are gone, leaving only memories in our minds. The darkness falling represents a sense of gloom and impending darkness, as we feel lost without the guidance of the fireflies. But the message of the chorus is repeated again, emphasizing the importance of listening to our inner voices and trusting our own intuition.
Overall, "Fireflies" seems to be a song about embracing the unknown and facing our fears while trusting in our own inner guidance. Whether the fireflies are present or not, we have the ability to navigate the darkness and find our way forward.

Mesmerizing lights ahead
The beautiful and captivating light is up ahead
Trapping sunlight in a net
The light is caught in a trap, creating a mesmerizing effect
Shadows dancing all around on the solitary ground
The shadows are moving and swaying in unison on the empty ground
To the sunset bound
Heading towards the direction of the setting sun
When there is no road to take
In times of confusion and uncertainty
You should not fear to go astray
Don't be afraid to take a different path
When in doubt just ask your heart
When unsure, listen to your instincts
And it will lead you from the dark
Your instincts will guide you out of the darkness
When the fireflies are dancing
In moments of beauty and magic
And the winds of changes chanting
During times of change and transformation
In the air
Around and above us
A gust of despair
Feeling of hopelessness and sadness
Where did they go
Where did the beautiful moment go?
They left us forlorn
The moment has passed, leaving us feeling lost and alone
With the memory
We hold on to the memory
In our hollow minds
In our empty and longing thoughts
Of the trance
Of the mesmerizing state we were in
And their hypnotic dance
Of the alluring and captivating movements of the fireflies
We sit and stare at the night
We remain still, gazing at the dark sky
Silhouette in dying light (in dying light)
The outline of objects fading away as the light diminishes
Darkness falling all around on the solitary ground
The darkness surrounds us on the empty earth
To the night we are bound
We are tied to the dark night
In an endless sea of choices
Amidst a vast number of options
Listen to your inner voices
Pay attention to your intuition and personal thoughts
