The Fever Sea

Over me
Cover me
Deep inside
The fever seaLame from my
My mother's womb
Born a cripple and sick
Under a red moonMy hands bleed
Feet red raw
I'm a broken man
Who dreamt the great warThe fear of life swallows me
Takes me through the fever sea
They crawl to me, cry for me
I'll drown them all in the fever seaThe feast flows on forever
Devour me until never
Fill them all with horror
Let them sleep with terrorWho calls me now
Then turns away?
Who takes the night
And brings day?Lame from my
My father's hand
Born to heal
Heal in every landThe fear of life swallows me
Takes me through the fever seaThe cold feel
Of my skin
I try to lose
But always winLame from my
My own hand
Believe me I've tried
Tried to make a stand
