12. Grave of the Fireflies (8:09)
Quiet the drone in the distance approaches
We hide, and hope they pass us by
Waiting in silence, praying they don’t find us
And maybe they’ll spare us our lives

Just maybe they’ll spare us our lives

Desolate village of sorrow and anguish
I stare upon what once was home
Explosions and flashes leave embers and ashes
And now I’ve got nowhere to go

And now we’ve got nowhere to go

Now, as the fire rains down from the sky
I see the love disappear from her eyes
I’ve seen the hearts of our people all change like the wind
A helping hand, I cannot find

Hold on
We’ll find a place to call our own
If I mourn, will you cry
Together we’ll live on alone

Life or death
We will not live forever
Or did you forget
Selflessness bereft 
You looked the other way
As we are left for dead

Gone are the tears of the innocent child
Each day you’re cursed watching her fading smile
You must be brave little sister
I’ll swallow my pride, whatever it takes to survive

Be strong
The fireflies will light the way
Never stop, carry on
You are the life in me today

Life or death
We will not live forever
Or did you forget
Selflessness bereft
You looked the other way
As we are left for dead

As the flame begins
The blackened rain turns out a beautiful display of hatred
Nothing left
Beneath the flames of where my love was laid to rest

Sleep, little one all your nightmares are gone
Rest in piece, and be free of your pain
For you I will fight one more day

Echoes of your voice repeatedly tormenting
Reminds me of my mistakes
How do I live with myself
My conscious says I sent you to an early grave
Have I sent you to an early grave

(X2)
Mother and father
Will dry your eyes
Now that you sleep with
The fireflies
