The Black Dahlia Murder
"Flies"


Down!
Start digging down your throat
Another string of lies is born
You must exemplify perfection
Bronzing a broken life of shit

You filthy liar
Septic tongue, shit eating grin
Slow internal suicide
An inch within the triggers pull again

This disease it is your mainstay
It wears its wires within me
Tender tissues scraped away
Of secrets etched on nameless graves

The smell of vomit
Hangs in the air tonight
Blush, eyeliner, lipstick
It's all right, tonight

You filthy liar
Septic tongue, shit eating grin
Love me with your yellowed smile
My flies are hungry for your kiss

Poison me my darling
Graves grow deeper with each passing day
This appalling love
Bask in your putrid revelry

Beauty lost in between
The lashes of sick drunken eye
Like a fool you have believed
Life of shame, you have fallen completely beneath

[solo]

And when the curtains finally part
You'll see that everyone is laughing
I am weakness just like you
I'll bury you before you're dead

Cockroach, come crawling home!

Crawl - slithering
Through this world of sculpted shit
So thrust those fingers deep, my child
It is your burden and your gift

You filthy liar
Septic tongue, shit eating grin
Slow internal suicide
An inch within the triggers pull again

Poison me my darling
Graves grow deeper with each passing day
This appalling love
Bask in your putrid revelry
