FRUIT FLIES
BUG MOMENT Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

8 eyes around the flies are buzzing
The lights die down the halls are flooding
Underground the lie is turning to catch up with you

Front door where I left it between the floor
And the splinters under
My tongue
In my lungs
replacement is blatant

8 eyes around the flies are buzzing
The lights die down the halls are flooding
Underground the lie is turning to catch up with you

You'll find another reason out
Another song I wrote about
Your eyes
Your lies
The have no weight
At anytime now you will break
The next thing you fake

8 eyes around the flies are buzzing

The lights die down the halls are flooding
Underground the lie is turning to catch up with you
