Thirsty Fly Lyrics

Any sense of dignity you have felt
Any sense of reality I need help
Any sense of this animal you could be
Any sense at all, give it to me
Any sense at all, give it to me
Come under me
Come under me

Lie to believe
One mile to concede
Here I thirst and I plead
Burn that skin off your knees
Burn that skin off your knees

Any sense of hope and what could be
I wash away in self pity
In the grip and grime this muddled time
I throw more wine on the drowning mind
Give it to me
Come unto me
Come under me
Come under me

Lie to believe
One mile to concede
Here I thirst and I plead
Burn that skin off your knees
Burn that skin off your knees

Who's the one who saw him die?
I am said the fly
With my little eye
I'm the one who same him die
Put a little sugar on there baby
And a little talcum is always walcum

Little busy thirsty fly drink with me and drink as I
Little busy thirsty fly drink with me get drunk as I
Little busy thirsty fly
Drink with me and watch me die

Lie to believe
One mile to concede
Here I thirst and I plead
Burn that skin off your knees (x6)

The Hero Inside

Any sense of dignity you have felt 
Any sense of reality I need help 
Any sense of this animal you could be 
Any sense at all, give it to me 
Any sense at all, give it to me 
Come under me
Come under me

Lie to believe 
One mile to concede 
Here I thirst and I plead 
Burn that skin off your knees 
Burn that skin off your knees

Any sense of hope and what could be 
I wash away in self pity 
In the grip and grime this muddled time 
I throw more wine on the drowning mind 
Give it to me
Come unto me 
Come under me
Come under me

Lie to believe 
One mile to concede 
Here I thirst and I plead 
Burn that skin off your knees 
Burn that skin off your knees

Who's the one who saw him die? 
I am said the fly 
With my little eye 
I'm the one who same him die 
Put a little sugar on there baby 
And a little talcum is always walcum

Little busy thirsty fly drink with me and drink as I 
Little busy thirsty fly drink with me get drunk as I 
Little busy thirsty fly 
Drink with me and watch me die

Lie to believe 
One mile to concede 
Here I thirst and I plead 
Burn that skin off your knees (x6)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
