Darling we're like fireflies stuck inside of this jar
Watching life slowly put out this fire in our hearts
We've got to escape, we've got to get free
Or this glass jar's gonna get the best of you and me
It's no wonder God put, these wandering souls inside
So let's break our bread, cut our ties
The open road has sent us an invite

We can sell our house
Burn our money
Hit the road just you and me honey
We can make it to Reno by tonight
Change our names, disappear
Make it look like we were never really here
We could go off the grid tonight
Cuz fireflies were born to shine
To shine

We'll leave town with nothing but the clothes on our backs
We need all our stuff and our things like we need a good heart attack
Cuz all of our things they tell us what to do
We gotta mow our lawns we gotta pay our dues
But what about love, doesn't that require any maintenance too
Oh we got love, but if it ain't enough well honey we'll make do

We can sell our house
Burn our money
Hit the road just you and me honey
We can make it to Reno by tonight
Change our names, disappear
Make it look like we were never really here
We could go off the grid tonight
Drive into the great unknown
With nothing but our hopes tied to these soles
Honey we could take that dive
We can sell our house
Burn our money
Hit the road just you and me honey
We can make it to Reno by tonight
Change our names, disappear
Make it look like we were never really here
We could go off the grid tonight

Darling we're like fireflies
Stuck inside of this jar
Watching life slowly put out
This fire in our hearts
