Child of the Flies Lyrics


This disassociation

Ever playing on my thoughts

I am like an insect in many ways

I feel every pinch and prod

Crawling through my head

They’re hiding in the corners of my mind

So bright

Fly into the light and watch it die

Little legs on my spine

Antenna itch in my ears

I want to fly into the light and die

Like a moth caught in desire

A blissful ending, knowing nothing

Of the pain that awaits

Never knowing a moment's peace

Sweating like an ox

Being swarmed by flies and mosquitoes

Crawling through my head

They’re hiding in the corners of my mind

So bright

Fly into the light and watch it die

How beautiful are the hands that built this cage for me

Crawling through my head

They’re hiding in the corners of my mind

So bright

Fly into the light and watch it die
