dead flies

our love is dead and gone

and now i'm not as strong as the day i left

everything seemed so clear when i wasn't thinking

it's gone too far to take it back

my life was never meant to be like this

somewhere i took a wrong turn and fell

we spent so much time pretending that nothing was wrong

except the silence, rejection and pain

i'm left staring out

dead flies on the windowsill

dead flies on the windowsill

now i realize that i'm lord of the dead flies

dead flies can't hear me cry

i watch the rain run down the pane

i don't recognize my reflection

who's that blank stare belong to

i don't know

my heart is like a priest

full of secrets that are wasted now

but i never thought that being apart

could be worse than being together

dead flies on the windowsill

dead flies on the windowsill

now i realize that i'm lord of the dead flies

dead flies can't hear me
