Firework

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvpv2pJvmUg]

by Katy Perry

Do you ever feel
like a plastic bag
drifting through the wind
wanting to start again

Do you ever feel
feel so paper thin
like a house of cards
one blow from caving in

Do you ever feel
already buried deep
six feet under scream
but no one seems to hear a thing

Do you know that
there’s still a chance for you
cause there’s a spark in you

You just gotta
ignite
the light
and let it shine
Just own
the night
like the Fourth of July

Cause baby you’re a firework
Come on show ’em what your worth
Make ’em go “Oh, oh, oh!”
as you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby you’re a firework
Come on let your colors burst
Make ’em go “Oh, oh, oh!”
You’re gonna leave ’em fallin’ down-own-own

You don’t have to feel
like a waste of space
You’re original
cannot be replaced
If you only knew
what the future holds
After a hurricane
comes a rainbow

Maybe you’re reason why
all the doors are closed
So you could open one
that leads you to the perfect road

Like a lightning bolt,
your heart will blow
And when it’s time,
you’ll know

You just gotta
ignite
the light
and let it shine
Just own
the night
like the Fourth of July

Cause baby you’re a firework
Come on show ’em what you’re worth
Make ’em go “Oh, oh, oh!”
As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby you’re a firework
Come on let your colors burst
Make ’em go “Oh, oh, oh!”
You’re gonna leave ’em all in awe-awe-awe”

Boom, boom, boom
even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
It’s always been inside of you, you, you
And now it’s time to let it through

Cause baby you’re a firework
Come on show ’em what your worth
Make ’em go “Oh, oh, oh!”
as you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby you’re a firework
Come on let your colors burst
Make ’em go “Oh, oh, oh!”
You’re gonna leave ’em all in awe-awe-awe

Boom, boom, boom
even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

Boom, boom, boom
even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

      Of course lovely Jamesy… death before life… before the fireworks and all that not. Else, it is just deaden. Until the deaden dies again and again…

      In death, is to be born.
      And in that birth, fireworks follow.

      Thank you for sharing the youtubes. It somewhat completes this entry. 🙂

        “A lover of what is looks forward to everything: life, death, disease, loss, earthquake, bombs, anything the mind might be tempted to call ‘bad.’ Life will bring us everything we need, to show us what we haven’t undone yet. Nothing outside ourselves can make us suffer. Except for our unquestioned thoughts, every place is paradise.” – A Thousand Names For Joy (Chapter 35), Byron Katie)

        This line stands out: “Life will bring us everything we need, to show us what we haven’t undone yet.”

        The keyword that stands out from the line above: “undone.”
