That feeling when you're ill, lying in bed with a fever, tired but unable to fall asleep, and when you finally do, you dream... Well, fever dreams are quite peculiar. In any case, this was the inspiration for this song. ✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* 🧚 *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧ © 2025 Changeling Lyrics: Written by Changeling.

(Strong bones crack sweetest…) Heat like sin crawlin’ under mah skin, (Let us crawl… let us burn…) Breathin’ come ragged, storm rollin’ in. (Breathe in) Sheets twist ‘round like snake in prayer, (We coil tight) Moon peek down, she just stare. ( see you burnin’) Sweat drips slow, and da shadows hum, (Hmmm… Mmmm…) Hear dem spirits whisper, “Time done come.” (Come… come…) Ah close mah eyes, but ah still fall, (Fall… fall…) Down dat river where da nightbirds call. (River call) Dreams feel real, but da world off-key, (Keys melt easy in fever heat…) Dis fever spirit got hold o’ me. Fever on da bayou, lawd, she burnin’ bright, (Burnin’… ) Swamp lights dancin’ in da dead o’ night. (dead o’ night. ) Gator grinnin’, moon gone pale, (pale grinnin') Drums in da cypress tellin’ tales. (We beat da heart…) Ah spin in da dark, can’t break away, (Don’t break… ya stay…) Lost in da heat, ah drift an’ sway. (Sway, Sway) Fever on da bayou, time stand still, (Stand still) Dreams be deep, an’ da river will. (River will… always will… always will) Big ole hare wid eyes o’ flame, (Ya see me now…) Say he know mah blood, he call mah name. (Ah know it deep… sweet… mmm, hot…) Trees all melt like sugar cane, (taste da sugar cane…) Sky be hummin’ a hoodoo refrain. (Hmm… mmm…) Body fightin’, heart beat slow, (Slow hearts easy to warm… easy to freeze ha..) Virus or voodoo, ah just don’t know. (Voodoo feast in ya…) Bayou breathin’, she takin’ toll, (Pay in sweat… pay with ya soul…) Heat crawl up an’ swallow mah soul. (Swallow you whole… hahaha…) Ah close mah eyes, an’ ah drift away, (Drift… drift…) To dat dream where da loas play. (We play rough… ) Fire on mah tongue, smoke in mah chest, (Burn slow… choke sweet…) Fever spirit won’t let me rest. And i never will.. Fever on da bayou, lawd, she burnin’ bright, (Burnin’…) Swamp lights dancin’ in da dead o’ night. (dead o’ night.) Bunnies talk an’ fruit done sing, (We make ‘em sing fo’ you…) World gone sideways, lost mah wing. (Gone...) Ah spin in da dark, can’t break away, (Spin, child… spin…) Caught in da storm, ah drift an’ sway. (Sway, Sway) Fever on da bayou, time stand still, (Bayou time) Dreams be deep, an’ da river will. (remember will…) Grip get tight, can’t catch no air, (No air) Walls close in, spirits stare. (Hare stare ) Hear dat drumbeat deep in clay, (Beat in clay) Pulse like thunder, fade away. (Fade away…) Ah call fo’ mercy, but none draw near, (Mercy fickle… voodoo faithful…) Only dat whisper — ( “We still here.”) Always here… always here… always here. Always here… always here… always here. Now da fever gone, dawn come slow, Mist rise high, spirits low. Peace sit quiet on dat cypress limb, (Quiet… quiet…) World cool down, soft and dim. (Cool ‘til next burn…) Dat fever burn, but she done teach — (Burn done teach) Even da fever loa got somethin’ to preach. (We preach… we teach… we preach.. we teach.. we preach.. we teach..)
