Sun Bleached Flies (Original Demo) Ethel Cain

[Intro]
One, two
One, two
[Vocalisation]

[Verse 1]
Sun bleached flies sitting in the windowsill
Waiting for the day they escape
And they talk all about that money and how their babies are always changing, while they're breathing in the poison of the paint
What I wouldn't give to be in Church this Sunday
Listening to the choir, so heartfelt, all singing
God loves you, but not enough to save you
So, baby girl, good luck taking care of yourself

[Chorus]
So I said fine, 'cause that's how my daddy raised me
If they strike once then you just hit 'em twice as hard
I'vе always prayed that in the end what I gavе is worth praising
And that flesh and blood can fly despite the odds

[Verse 2]
We all know how it goes
The more it hurts, the less it shows
But I still feel like they all know, and that's why I can never go back home
And I spend my life watching my own life from the sidelines
And God, I've tried, but I think it's about time I put up a fight
