Chest Fever lyrics
Chest Fever lyrics
I know she's a tracker,
any scarlet would back her.
They say she's a chooser
but I just can't refuse her.
She was just there,
but then she can't be here no more.
And as my mind unweaves
I feel the freeze down in my knees
but just before she leaves,
she receives.
She's been down in the dunes
and she's dealt with the goons.
Now she drinks from a bitter cup
I'm trying to get her to give it up.
She was just there,
but then she can't be here no more.
And as my mind unweaves
I feel the freeze down in my knees
but just before she leaves,
she receives.
It's long, long when she's gone,
I get weary holding on.
Now I'm coldly fading fast
I don't think I'm gonna last very much longer.
“She's stoned“, said the Swede
and moon calf agreed.
I'm like a viper in shock
with my eyes in the clock.
She was just there somewhere
and here I am again.
And as my mind unweaves,
I feel the freeze down in my knees,
but just before she leaves,
she receives.
