Story of a deranged wannabe terrorist that gets instructions from a firefly.

Got a message from a firefly
There's a job to do before I die
Wove a pattern in the sky
Said the lion never cries

See the ruin on the TV screen
Dirty ones that must be cleaned
Heard somebody had a master plan
Packed the stuff and took the van

Saw a Beatle in a rockin' chair
And my old man falling' down the stairs
Got a backpack full of dynamite
Climbed the mountain just to see the light

Firefly

Feeling' better now the rain has come
Wanna go but I'm already gone

Lyrics:

Staring at your Kate Moss shower curtain
Lying on the bathroom floor naked
Hiding coke inside all your orange pixie sticks
You take a rail & spread it on your tit

You’ve had a long list of lovers, 
But none of them matter to you except me
I’ve had a long list of lovers, 
But none of them matter to me except you

Sesame syrup
I heard it a long time ago

There’s a small black notebook that you keep hidden underneath your bed 
I’ve seen before
It says every dirty thing that you did with every single boy
You’ve ever been with…

& we fall asleep to the scent of long stemmed roses
Always dreaming of sex on the ceiling
& we sleep to the scent of long stemmed roses
Always dreaming of sex on the ceiling...

Lyrics:

There was a hentai video that I saw 
I told you about the night that we first made love
About a girl, who as soon as she made you come
Could show you the future & tell you your fortune

Beautiful hearts are in your eyes
I’ve been waiting for you to fall for me & let me in your life
I’ve been waiting for you

Told you I wanted to die in an airplane crash over the ocean
That it was romantic, but you didn’t like it
Thought it was stupid & thinking of me dead was making you feel bad…

Lyrics:

I missed you & I cried, but I said that I was alright
& I know it’s been awhile since I needed a distraction

Because I want to do everything that you want me to
To tell you the truth

I need to stay alive, so sad that I could die

It’s leading me on, every time we touch
Leading me on, every time it hurts
Feeling so lonely because it’s not enough
Missing you only ever since we fell in love

& I watched you do a line that you spread out on the table
I don’t need to see you wired, I just want to see you upside down

I want to do everything that you want me to 
To tell you the truth

I listened to you cry all night through the telephone…

Couldn’t say you didn’t want me then when we were lying in my bed that night
You were acting like a different person as if suddenly you wanted to just be friends
I was hurt & so I took a shower so you couldn’t hear me, knowing I had to cry
Sad to know that while my heart was breaking you were sleeping or just faking…

Lyrics:

You only fuck for love
Told me you could never get enough
Posing as a Playboy centerfold 
You could be my Penthouse Pet, I know

You make me think of storms on the beaches
With all the lights off

Everything is wrong, but it’s alright
You’re the only good thing in my life

Do what your heart desires
Love is always strange when it just starts
Shouldn’t have a care left in the world
Naked, tanning by the swimming pool…

Laying in the sun,
Never need to tell me when you come
Because you know that I can just feel it

You're the Only Good Thing in My Life

Lyrics:

Saw you on the side of the road
I could see you were walking slow, drinking a Slurpee
In a peach baseball cap, falling in my lap
You were so thirsty

Could you love me instead of all the boyfriends you get?
Know I’d make you forget about all of those rich fuckboys

Kiss it off me,
If you’re gonna break my heart this is a good start
Kiss it off me

You always bite your lip when you’re feeling it, as we move slowly
& your peach baseball cap is tossed under the rack of clothes & your jewelry

& you beg for it in the morning again before you go to the gym
Said it’s a bad habit you just can’t quit…

Lyrics:

When I was young I thought the world of you
You were all that I wanted then
It faded & I never saw you again,
But I won’t forget the love we had

Come to me now,
Don’t let me go
Stay by my side

Don’t let me go
Stay with me still 
I’ve missed you so

When I was young I thought the world of you
I was dumb to let you drift away
& though I guess it had to come to an end
No one else could have the love we shared…

& my heart goes out to you wherever you are…
