Marigold - Boyhood, nonetheless

Waste my youth alone
The fireflies are coming back
My dad calls, I don't touch the phone
The flowers come through concrete cracks

Oh, the fireflies aren't staying here
I stuff a couple in my jam jar chest
The boys are s'posed to break the glass
But I'll save em nonetheless
When June goes they'll keep growing
Small and stuck but changin' nonetheless
(Nonetheless)

I can't go back to Gramma's home
But the memories are miracles
(And the memories are old)
I'm still a boy alreadt scared of growing old
And lucky I am here at all,
I'm thankful I am here at all

Oh, the fireflies aren't staying here
I stuff a couple in my jam jar chest
The boys are s'posed to break the glass
But I'll save em nonetheless
When June goes they'll keep growing
Small and stuck but changin' nonetheless

I'm too gentle for em'
Too gentle for a man like me

I'm too gentle for em'
I stay gentle nonetheless
