Sun Bleached Flies

Sun Bleached Flies - Ethel Cain/Hayden Silas Anhedonia

Lyrics by：Hayden Silas Anhedonia

Composed by：Hayden Silas Anhedonia

Sun bleached flies sitting in the windowsill

Waiting for the day they escape

They talk all about that money and how their babies are always changing

While they're breathing in the poison of the pain

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

So I said fine 'cause that's how my daddy raised me

If they strike once then you just hit 'em twice as hard

But in the end if I bend under the weight that they gave me

Then this heart would break and fall as twice as far

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 it go by from the sidelines

And God I've tried but I think it's about time I put up a fight

If they strike once then you just hit 'em twice as hard

But I always knew that in the end no one was coming to save me

So I just prayed and I keep praying and praying and praying

If it's meant to be then it will be

So I met him there and told him I believe

Singing if it's meant to be then it'll be

If it's meant to be then it will be

Singing if it's meant to be then it will be

I'm still praying for that house in Nebraska

By the highway out on the edge of town

Dancing with the windows open

I can't let go when something's broken

It's all I know and it's all I want now
