Fever

My brain is working so damn fast, I might just blow a fuse
Today could really be my last, I got nothing left to lose
Or maybe I’ll short circuit and just go out with a bang
But is it even worth it, if nobody knows my name

I got a fever, got a fever on the rise
Can’t ya see it glimmer like hot pokers in my eyes
I got a fever, got a fever on the soul
Can’t ya see it simmer like I’m walking on hot coals

Today I woke up angry, today I woke up mean
I read the morning paper, and I couldn’t help but scream
I skimmed across the headlines, I saw your name in bold
I’m turning off the faucet, but I can’t regain control

My brain is working so damn fast, I might just blow a fuse
A terra cotta army with the terra firma blues
