Lyrics
A long time ago I was in love with a girl and I think I took that love a little too far
You can see the cigarette burns on the wall
And all the empty bottles in the hall
If the water gets too rough you know who to call, don’t ya baby?
And I can see the way he looks in your eyes
A soul so lost with his foolish lies
If ya even have to ask, baby I’m surprised, I’m so surprised
Sometimes you got to leave your lover
If ya wanna learn to love again
Little black flies
Flying all around the kitchen
Little black flies
Broken wings and bad decisions
Well, here I am and it’s another night
It’s two am and I can still hear y’all fight
I walk up the stairs lit up by the old porch light it’s burning bright
I open the door and I bust on in
I can tell right away from the bruises on your skin
Everything changed when I saw that gun in his hand and I don’t understand
A shot rang out in the name of love
And I fell right down in a pool of blood
Little black flies
Flyin’ all around the kitchen
Little black flies
Broken wings and bad decisions
Little black flies
Flyin’ all around the kitchen
Little black flies
Broken wings and bad decisions
