Fever

(album: Drugs In California - 2022)

Kissed your eyes with sky
Wrapped you in the night
I was fresh air
In your lungs
Kept you safe and warm
Held your heavy bones
Delicately
In the sun

It's a calloused game
That you choose play
There's a give and take
You're in fever now
And it's burning out
When it's hard to breathe
Don't you worry about me

I never let go
I don't ever get cold cold no
I don't ever let up
Go on
Never gonna give up
Go on
I don't ever get tired
Not scared of the fire fire fire
I don't ever let go
Go on then
Go on then
Go on go on
Go on go on

Fed you from the trees
Blessed you in my seas
I was water
On your tongue

Belly of the beast
Brought you to your knees
Delicately
In the sun it's a calloused game
That you choose play
There's a give and take
You're in fever now
And it's burning out
When it's hard to breathe
Don't you worry about me

I never let go
I don't ever get cold cold no
I don't ever let up
Go on
Never gonna give up
Go on
I don't ever get tired
Not scared of the fire fire fire
I don't ever let go
Go on then
Go on then
Go on go on
Go on go on

You think you hold
Your knife black gold
Against my verdant throat
But I don't need
Clean air to breathe
I'm not the one that chokes

It's your well you poison now
A fate I cannot taste
And while you sleep
My endless reach
A god with many names

When the curtains finally close
Your last undying gaze
I'll take the throne
My brutal cold the last one on the stage

Don't you worry about me
Don't you worry about me

I never let go
I don't ever get cold cold no
I don't ever let up
Go on
Never gonna give up
Go on
I don't ever get tired
Not scared of the fire fire fire
I don't ever let go
Go on then
Go on then
Go on go on
Go on go on
Take a sip, take a sip
Take a sip, take a sip
(Take a sip)
