Fever Bloom

Everything is glowing wrong Like I’ve been here far too long Yeah Step in the room, I’m already split Half of me gone, half counterfeit Faces repeat but the shapes all slide Look in the glass, something else inside Heartbeat racing but I feel it lag Time moves fast but my thoughts all drag Smile too wide, yeah I play along But nothing here feels structurally strong Something’s bending out of line Like I’m running out of time I feel it bloom inside my head Sweetest thing I’ve ever bled Every color pulls me in Like I’m wearing thinner skin I feel it rise, I feel it break Every move a small mistake If I fall I won’t come through I’m dissolving into you Yeah Thought I was steering but I drifted off Cut my edges now I’m way too soft Trade the chaos for a quiet cage Now I’m stuck in a polished stage Late night noise to a silent screen Don’t know which one is more obscene Every choice got me locked in place Now I barely recognize my face Something’s crawling through my veins Dressed up pretty, shaped like chains I feel it bloom inside my head Sweetest thing I’ve ever bled Every color pulls me in Like I’m wearing thinner skin I feel it rise, I feel it break Every move a small mistake If I fall I won’t come through I’m dissolving into you Tell me this is what I chose Tell me this is how it goes Every version decomposed Every truth I overdosed I don’t know where I begin Or the shape I’m living in Don’t wake up Don’t break out Don’t lose touch Don’t come down I feel it bloom inside my head Sweetest thing I’ve ever bled Every color pulls me in Like I’m wearing thinner skin I feel it rise, I feel it break Every move a small mistake If I fall I won’t come through I’m dissolving into you If I wake I lose it all If I stay I start to fall Somewhere in between the two There’s a version that was true
