I never hoped for change,
but once I did,
it was long gone.

I'm just a lowly fly
hitting my head on the window
I'm just a lowly fly,
words taste so sweet,
chasing bitter defeat

Shush, keep your distance-
did you want me here?
I'm buzzing with life
under your judging eyes
You never wanted me here.

I'm just a lowly fly,
Even if you don't call,
I'll be that lowly fly,
taste my sugar withdrawl,
what can I do but crawl?

Oh, so annoying,
bothersome, alloying
my trust with yours
I really should see,
I do, I do, I do,
but I can't know.
Do I spit on your efforts
to nourish my blood?
Do I spit on your efforts,
why am I
not good
enough?

I'm just a lowly fly,
I can't stand to cry,
I'm just a lowly fly
sticking my head into honey,
oh tell me -
Are days without me as sunny?
Don't worry, I'll come back anyway.

I'm just a lowly fly,
hitting my head on the window.
I'm just a lowly fly,
words taste so sweet,
so I can feed
on them.

I never changed to hope,
but once I did,
I got rid of it.
