Fever

Fever too tired to fight
For whatever you've been you ain't been tonight
Silence on the left of me, violence to the right
Somewhere in the middle there's no end in sight

And I feel as though I've gone and lost my mind
And I'm thinkin' that maybe I might oblige
But the saltine tears assaulting my eyes
Tell me not tonight

Fever telling me so, I've had so many
I don't wanna know
Fever tearin' my soul
I've been to these places that
I don't wanna go

Why does this strange place seem so familiar?
Why does the teacher have a big smile on his face?
On his table sour apples like lemons
Teacher, tell us. What is our lesson?

And I've seen it all before, take you once and then some more
But I never took enough to really hurt nobody
And I'll take you one, have you once and maybe some
Let me tell you, I just want to feed my body now.

Why does her face, it seem so familiar?
Why does the teacher have a big smile on his face?
Spread in front of me so young so naive
You are the goddess Jezebel, the goddess Jezebel.
