If I was a fly And I had a day left 'til I died I would lay down til tomorrow You're clipping my wings I try to win you back with all my words that you know mean nothing You could have believed in me And I saw a tear on a rose and I clipped it off for you As I gag on my guts 'cause I'm watching you give up I'm a tear in the clock as you walk away I can almost taste the glaze on your lips Smacking away into the night They say at least he's my friend And he'll treat you kindly in the end Call me bitter but I'm brimming with hate for both of you A film if playing in my head of you fornicating in his bed The satin sheets are ruby red like your nails that scarred my back And I saw a tear on a rose so I swept it off for you I'm a fly on a wall and I'm watching you give up I'm a tear in the clock as you walk away I can almost see a shade of your blue eyes Fading away into the night You never believed in me But I will believe in me Because now I take a match to the rose that I gave, my love, to you Won't forgive Won't forget And the rage will lift me up I hope you choke on his tongue As I walk away I will not watch his hands as they deftly pull you away Into the night
