Swatting At Flies Lyrics

The only thing I ever made in my life was a fist
The only thing that ever proved that I exist
Broken glass looks best when the sun's goin' down
Take it from me, I'm broken too and there's lots of us aroundLike swatting at flies till they cover the floor
Like pulling teeth, tie the string and slam the door
Like the time I fell in love into someone elseLike the time I complained about the cards I've been dealt
Like they say when it rains you know it always pours
Like hearing no again and slamming of doorsI've been alone, I've been together, I'd been lost
I've been making my decisions, with the coins that I toss
The slower they walk you know the harder it gets
Shoulda, woulda, coulda, sketches all our regretsLike swatting at flies till they cover the floor
Like pulling teeth, tie the string and slam the door
Like the time I fell in love into someone elseLike the time I complained about the cards I've been dealt
Like they say when it rains you know it always pours
Like hearing no again and slamming of doorsEnjoying myself has just been an afterthought
I never doubted the teachers, just the lessons they taught
If I couldn't fill my stomach, I'd fill my head
But I never could fill the word that I saidLike swatting at flies till they cover the floor

Like pulling teeth, tie the string and slam the door
Like the time I fell in love into someone elseLike the time I complained about the cards I've been dealt
Like they say when it rains you know it always pours
Like hearing no again and slamming of doorsLike slamming of doors
Like swatting at flies
