Lyrics for I Would Hurt a Fly

I can't get that sound you make out of my head I can't even figure out what's making it No one else around even seems to be noticing It's only small enough for me I can't get that sound you make out of my head I can't even figure out what's making it It feels like fingernails across the moon Or do you rub your wings together There's a mean bone in my body It's connected to the problems that I won't take for an answer And I won't take that from you Because I'd hurt a fly Let you go to sleep Feeling bad as me Let you go to sleep Feeling bad There's a mean bone in my body It's connected to the problems that I won't take for an answer And I won't take that from you Because I'd hurt a fly
