Fever

(album: Scarecrow - 2022)

My head is a maze
That you created
Littered with empty threats
(A bag of bones I have nothing left)
You chose the gaslight me to death
You made me sell my soul
For your control

A prisoner to the mistake
Of hoping you would change

Baby, we're born to lose
When there's a fever in me
There is a fire in you
Now I have the shortest fuse
Because the fever in me
Won't calm the fire in you
And I'm burning out

My heart is a cell that's built for hiding
Cause I'm not allowed to hurt
(Straight you're never satisfied)

Convince me darkness is what I deserve
When I'm am at my worst you have it worse
(You have it worse)

Baby, we're born to lose
When there's a fever in me
There is a fire in you
Now I have the shortest fuse
Because the fever in me
Won't calm the fire in you
And I'm burning out

I'm burning out, burning out this time
I'm burning out, burning out this time
I'm burning out, burning out this time
I'm burning out
I'm burning out, burning out this time
I'm burning out, burning out this time
I'm burning out, burning out this time
I'm burning out

Baby, we're born to lose
When there's a fever in me
There is a fire in you
Now I have the shortest fuse
Because the fever in me
Won't calm the fire in you
And I'm burning out
(And I'm burning out)
