lyrics

Fever Dream

Go ahead now please take the lead
This golden thread is a burden to me
No lights can shine on the frays and the seams
So here I'm stuck in this fever dream

Benevolent clairvoyant pick one out of nine
though perfect must be how you know my mind
cut this gordian knot by tying me down
leaving none but a single thread crowned

Don't you hide from me vague and obscure
You're that flawless ideal that I crave and lure
As the shuttle glides past and the reel is unwound
my memories are cast yet still stand out too loud

every touch, every kiss, every laugh that we'll share
is a lie, isn't real, fever dream, fever dream

every cry, every fight, all this life that we'll share
is a lie, isn't real, fever dream, fever dream

every touch, every kiss, every laugh that we'll share
is a lie, isn't real, fever dream, fever dream

every cry, every fight, all this life that we'll share
is a lie, isn't real, fever dream, fever dream

Weave each fibre of my being
bend me to shape
I'll stop tracing these lines
if you could just

Walk with me
wide awake yet fast asleep
Show me all the cuts to end
this precarious uncertainty

Weave each fibre of my being
bend me to shape
I'll stop tracing these lines
if you could just

Weave each fibre of my being
bend me to shape
I'll stop tracing these lines
if you could just

Weave each fibre of my being
bend me to shape
I'll stop tracing these lines
if you could just

wake me up
