[Verse 1]
The fear
I feel fear
Of all the stupid things
A man could feel
While his freedom rings
He squanders the deal
What am I, blind?
What took me this long?
Can we hit rewind
On somebody's magic bong? Oh
[Chorus]
Come back and touch my face
Feel for fever in the night
You look into my eyes
But you don't really recognize me anymore
[Verse 2]
Passed another pointless year
Foaming at the mouth
I with my hands ever up
And yours stretching out
I know I've run out of luck
This fear is a terrible drug
If I only had sense enough
To let it give way to love
[Chorus]
Come back and touch my face
Feel for fever in the night
You look into my eyes
But you don't really recognize me anymore
[Outro]
No, not anymore
Not anymore
