anyone like this band? Before I was introduced to the jossy goodness of firefly i never made the connection but I think BB is a fan of the verse. So much in fact, that they made a song called 'firefly'.


read the lyrics and tell me if you can see a connection:


You my friend
You're a lot like them
But I cut your line
And you know I did
Now I'm lost in you
Like I always do
And I'd die to win
'Cause I'm born to lose

[Chorus:]
Firefly
Could you shine your light
Now I know your ways
'cause they're just like mine
Now I'm justified
As I fall in line
And it's hard to try
When you're open wide

Take my hand
We'll be off and then
We'll come back again
To a different land
Now I like this way
You can go away
If you guess the name
You cannot replace

[Chorus]

Bring me your enemies
Lay them before me
And walk away

[Chorus]

Fuck you firefly
Have you lost your light
Now I hate your ways
'cause they're just like mine
So you lost my friend
Such a sorry end
And I don't know why
So I choke and smile



Granted, the lyrics are VERY general so it's hard to pick on certain ques but i think that's why they wrote it that way- it makes sense to the average fan but now i can make connections to the show also.


or of course, i'm just going crazy.....:tounge:

Oh My!!!! Finally... A fellow browncoat with a penchant for Breaking Benjamin!! Yup! I've been a fan of BB since day one. I was browsing through Best Buy one time and this really cool song was playing on the intercom. I asked around and found out about the cd and needless to say.... I've been listening to them ever since. I hear that they're working on their 3rd full length album and it should be hitting the stores soon.They also have an EP which has a couple of new tracks.... one of which is LADYBUG which I think is their best song so far. This is just SHINY!!! Now... I'm not the only browncoat that believes that most of their songs can easily qualify for a FIREFLY soundtrack kinda thing.

that might be it because on all the cds that i have of theirs they do spinoffs of old movie songs and old folk songs


Someday the verse will spit in your soup but at least they gave you soup.

I've been a fan of theirs since their first album. It would be interesting to find out if any memebers of the band are fellow Browncoats.

At last.
We can retire and give up
this life of crime.

Yes, two of my favorite things in the verse in the same place. I've been hooked on breaking Benjamin since I played "Run Like Hell". Cool story, the day Serenity came out back to back on the radio they played BB "firefly" and God Smack's "Serenity". I know it wasn't on purpose but it was still gorram great.

"Ta ma duh!"-Mal
