Fruit Fly Lyrics

    Left some food wrapped up
    In a plastic bag
    On the kitchen table
    Way too long

    I sat down to eat
    Next to the bag
    I was too tired
    To throw it out

    I saw a swarm of fruit flies.
    I took the bag downstairs.
    When I came back
    They were still there.

    Flying jerky patterns
    Like snowflakes in the air.
    I’m sorry
    You’ve got nowhere to go
    I’m sorry
    You’ve got nowhere to go

    Left straight right straight
    I can’t find a reason
    I know I’ll keep going but
    I can’t find a reason

    Nothing looks right
    Nothing smells right
    And i can’t land

    Geometric patterns
    Smearing out of control
    Only have enough gas left
    For the beercan to the bowl

    What can you do but go on?
    [repeat]

    Oh no you make your own mistakes
    I cannot bring them back to you.
    Oh no you make your own mistakes
    I cannot measure up to you.
