Lyrics of Change (In the House of Flies) by Deftones

I watched you change
Into a fly
I looked away
You were on fire
And I watched a change in you
It′s like you never had wings
Now you feel so alive
I've watched you change
I took you home
Set you on the glass
I pulled off your wings
Then I laughed
And I watched a change in you
It′s like you never had wings
Now you feel so alive
I've watched you change
It's like you never had wings
Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah
I look at the cross
Then I look away
Give you the gun
Blow me away
And I watched a change in you
It′s like you never had wings
Now you feel so alive
I′ve watched you change
Now you feel alive
You feel alive
You feel alive
I've watched you changed
It′s like you never had wings
Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah
You've changed
You′ve changed
You've changed
Into a fly
