Soundgarden – Drawing Flies Lyrics 16 years ago
I don't like to give a meaning for songs because I think everyone should interpret songs the way they want to, but to me this song is about the grunge movement in general:
"Sitting here like uninvited company
Wallowing in my own obscenities
I share a cigarette with negativity
Sitting here like wet ashes with X's in my eyes
And drawing flies"
I think that is about the way the grunge movement is kind of about being dirty and the line :drawing flies" means that he is so dirty that flies are attracted.

I also think that the chorus could be about writers' block.
