Drawing Flies - Soundgarden

Sitting here like uninvited company

Wallowing in my own obscenities

I share a cigarette with negativity

Sitting here like wet ashes

With X’s in my eyes and drawing flies

Bathed in perspiration drowned my enemies

Used my inspiration for a guillotine

I fire a loaded mental cannon to the page

Leaning on the pedestal that holds my self denial

Firing the pistol that shoots my holy pride

Sitting here like wet ashes with X’s in My eyes, and drawing flies

Hey what you yellin'

About, conditions, permission, mirrored self affliction

Hey what you yellin’about sadist’s

Co-addiction, perfect analogies

Hey what you yellin’about conditions

Permission mirrored self affliction

Leaning on the pedestal that holds my self denial

Firing the pistol that shoots my holy pride

Sitting here like wet ashes with X’s in my eyes

And drawing flies
