Ben Howard – Black Flies Lyrics 13 years ago
i went to his show yesterday and before he started he said the song was about losing a good friend. i think this makes sense when he says
"Black flies on the windowsill
That we are
That we are
That we are to hold
Comfort came against my will"

as if they tried to hold on to a friendship that wasn't going to work out in the end anyways. such a beautiful song and lyric. and even better live!
