Fever Seizure

Fever seizure
I thought she was a goner
Now I'm crying on the street
Fever seizure
The truck driver says you got to hang her from her feet

A crowd of people is gathering outside
And me, I'm just not ready to say goodbye

Fever seizure
Try to keep it together, but the seconds feel like days
Fever seizure
How can a mama be calm, her freakout has to wait

She's staring at nothing behind her eyes
Please hurry up, we're running out of time

The fireman asks, "Did you feel warm?"
I'm finding my cool as we step through the ambulance doors
His niece had one last week and they get calls twice at night
There's nothing to do and everything will be alright

Fever seizure
I ask the medic if she was unaware
Fever seizure
He laughs and tells me it's the first in a life of scares

We get to the hospital and they bring us inside
"So this one was ephemeral, what about next time?
What about next time?"

When she's sick, I just want her to get well
Don't care about all the trivial things we obsess about
She might only sleep sparingly during the night
There's nothing to do and everything will be alright
Everything will be alright
Everything will be alright
Everything will be alright
Everything will be alright
