  • Verse 1
    Jesus lying in 
    his 
    mother
    's arms 

    Is a 
    photon released 
    from a dying 

    star 

    We move through 
    the 
    forest 
    at night 

    The sky is 
    full of momentary 

    light 

    And everything we need 

    is just 
    too far 

    We are photons 

    released from a dying 
    star 

    We 
    are 
    fireflies 
    a child 
    has trapped 
    in a 
    jar 

    And everything 
    is distant 

    as the stars 

    I am here 
    and you are where 
    you are 


    Verse 2

    We have lived a long 

    time here 
    in the forest 

    We lie 
    beneath 
    the heaps of 
    leaves 

    We are 
    par
    tial to this 
    partial light 

    We cannot sleep 
    and fear 

    our 
    dreams 

    There is no order 
    here, nothing 

    can be planned 

    We are fire
    flies trapped 

    in a little boy's 
    hand 

    And 
    everything is 
    distant 

    as the stars 

    And I am 
    here and 
    you are where you 

    are 

    Verse 3

    And we lie 
    among our atoms 
    and I speak 

    to you of things 

    And hope sometimes 

    that maybe you will understand 

    There is 
    no order here 
    and 

    there is no middle 
    ground 

    Nothing 
    can be predicted 
    and 

    nothing can be planned 

    A star is 
    just a memory 
    of a star 

    We are fireflies 
    pulsing 

    dimly in the 
    dark 

    We are here 
    and you are where 

    you are 

    Outro 1
    We are here 
    and 
    you are where you are

    • Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

    • Well-Designed App

      Rose the Black Cat

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

    • Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

    • Secret weapon

      Brad

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

    • Very reliable tuner

      theNewPaul

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

    • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

    • Great to tune and play

      Lynae T

      I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
