Maybe it was a little more than fireworks.

Possible, but if so, I'd think they'd have described them as explosives, not pyrotechnics. However, some of those pyrotechnics can be pretty big, and make a helluva bang in the air...

hmmm...

Independence Day
And all I remember
Was a midnight rainbow
That fell from the sky
As I stand on the beach
I slowly surrender
To the child in me
That can't say goodbye

The rockets in the air
And the people everywhere
Put away their differences for a while
Oh I am still a child
When it comes to something wild
Oh that was the night
I painted the sky
