unwoman - flies lyrics
there was a time before the winged creatures spoke to each other
a bad reputation was the scent of sticky honey
attracting flies and bears alike
calling the birds out of the sky to alight with aspiration
oh, to touch your dangerous beauty
to know terrestrial pleasures as you, an expert in knowing them, do
the promise to teach wildness to the politely restrained
we argue about the right way to say things
call out an insensitive metaphor
in black and white everyone can see our failings
and we can never be sorry enough
yet there are real monsters in our midst
whose demons burn them from within
hollow corpses walking hungry
and we let you — afraid to speak your names
to lose the honor of your celebrity
don’t you know flies love sh+t too
soon that’s all you’ll have surrounding you
a thick cloud of insects your exile
goodbye bears and birds and pretty girls
remember when i assured you
no one will believe me when i tell them what you’ve done
so you don’t need to silence me
i may as well speak and let them think i just want the attention
but picturing public opinion: shocked at my brashness
or full of saccharine sympathy
i recoiled, hushed
but the birds i told believed me
the ones i got to before you could poison them against me
those immune to the sl!ck ooze of your charm
the honey smells like sh+t
