I remember the kid in 7th grade that spat in my face over a girl 6 of his friends came over, egging him on, kicking my ass over a girl Now i just ran away and it's with me still today But i'm reminded of that kid by you I try to change the scenery and you act like you're over me And i've become a swatted fly again I try to bring you off the shelf and you tell me to fuck myself And i've become a swatted fly again I've made choices not quite from the heart. i'd hide in my shell over a girl When i break through you shut me down. i'm outta my hell into your world Now i know i should take the bad with the good But everything tells me to walk away You put a smile on my face and then you put me in your place And i've become a swatted fly again When anything i say or do is never good enough for you I've become a swatted fly again I'll never be your swatted fly again
