lyrics

flies run into mirrors, and so does everyone else
chasing things they think are real
happiness is a fairy tail

I don't want to be a downer
but that's all ever seem to be
I don't want to be a loner
but how could anyone really love me

I thought about dying last night
I thought about how hard it would be
I thought about thinking it over
I thought about jumping
I thought about not existing

but I can't do that, cause I think people care
at least enough to listen
to my complaints, roll another joint
cause this is how I cope

I am a fly, trapped inside a lightbulb
the heat's beating down on my back
and I can't take it
but I can't leave because I'm trapped
I'm always trapped
screaming, hurting, suffering, a slow death
and now my wings are burning
and so is my brain
so now all that think of
is an escape
