[Intro]
Flies, flies

[Verse 1]
Sitting here like uninvited company
Wallowing in my own obscenity
I share a cigarette with negativity

[Hook]
Sitting here like wet ashes with X's in my eyes
And drawing flies

[Verse 2]
Bathed in perspiration drowned my enemy
Used my inspiration for a guillotine
I fire a loaded mental cannon to the page

[Hook]
Leaning on the pedestal that holds my self-denial
Firing the pistol that shoots my holy pride
Sitting here like wet ashes with X's in my eyes
And drawin' flies

[Bridge]
I said, "Hey! What you yelling
About conditions, permission, mirrored self-affliction?
Hey! What you yelling
About sadists, co-addiction, perfect analogies?
Hey! What you yelling
About conditions, permission, mirrored self-affliction?"
[Hook]
Leaning on the pedestal that holds my self-denial
Firing the pistol that shoots my holy pride
Sitting here like wet ashes with X's in my eyes
And drawin' flies
(Flies)

[Verse 1]
Sitting here like uninvited company
Wallowing in my own obscenity
I share a cigarette with negativity

[Hook]
Leaning on the pedestal that holds my self-denial
Firing the pistol that shoots my holy pride
Sitting here like wet ashes with X's in my eyes
And drawing flies
Flies…
