"Firework"
by Katie 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 screams,
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 Bonfire Night
'Cos 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
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 your 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 Bonfire Night
'Cos 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-ough-ough
'Cos 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
