Story behind the song

As i was writing at my computer one evning a fly landed on the paper i was working with ,i swatted the fly and felt strangley guilty and wrote the song minutes later.

Lyrics

TWO FLIES
Two flies were climbing up my wall
They had a bet to see which one was the first to fall
No money of course exchanged hands 
The weakest one-came right back down to land
He landed on my letter 
I swiped him it made me feel better 
His friend was saddened by the blow
Two flies 
Two flies
I hunted for the other fly
I stopped for a moment to ask myself why
The guilt it must have took control
The other fly was lying low
What right did I have to be judging? 
The blood on my hands were smudging
The female went on to reproduce
Two flies
Two flies
