Testo Sun Bleached Flies - Ethel Cain

Testo della canzone Sun Bleached Flies (Ethel Cain), tratta dall'album Preacher’s Daughter

Sun-bleached flies sitting in the windowsill

Waiting for the day they escape

They talk all about their money and how their babies are always changing

While they're breathing in the poison of the paint

What I wouldn't give to be in church this Sunday

Listening to the choir so heartfelt, all singing

"God loves you, but not enough to save you"

So, baby girl, good luck taking care of yourself

So I said fine, 'cause that's how my daddy raised me

If they strike once, then you just hit 'em twice as hard

But in the end, if I bend under the weight that they gave me

Then this heart would break and fall as twice as far

We all know how it goes

The more it hurts, the less it shows

But I still feel like they all know

And that's why I could never go back home

And I spend my life

Watching it go by from the sidelines

And God, I've tried

But I think it's about time I put up a fight

But I don't mind, 'cause that's how my daddy raised me (how my daddy raised me)

If they strike once, then you just hit 'em twice as hard (hit 'em twice as hard)

But I always knew that in the end, no one was coming to save me

So I just prayed, and I keep praying and praying and praying

If it's meant to be, then it will be (oh, oh)

So I met him there and told him I believe (oh, oh)

Singing, "If it's meant to be, then it will be" (it'll be)

I forgive it all as it comes back to me (back to me, oh)

If it's meant to be, then it will be (oh, it will be, yeah)

So I met him there and told him I believe (I believe, yeah)

Singing, "If it's meant to be, then it will be" (oh)

I forgive it all as it comes back to me (it all comes back to me)

If it's meant to be then it will be (it will be, it will be, it will be)

So I met him there and told him I believe (I believe, yeah)

Singing, "If it's meant to be, then it will be" (yeah)

And I forgive it all as it comes back to me (oh)

And I'm still praying for that house in Nebraska

By the highway, out on the edge of town

Dancing with the windows open

I can't let go when something's broken

It's all I know, and it's all I want now
