This fever I have is because

of you, my body is blazing,

the flames alight and lick at

my ear, so that I can only

hear, muddled words of

you, through the years

Too many a trusted word

was said, my body was

porous, I savoured every

drop of you, took it all as

true, now I wander my way

through the years

Ooh you blinded me with all

your light, I wish I could see

now, promises and lies

ignite the fire, and I wonder

why I believed in you

Through the years, of joy

and laughter, of tears and

sadness, of hopes and

hearts, through the years,

of love and loving, of hurt

and healing, falling apart

I'm no longer fooled by your

disguise, I'm sorry that you

are, I pity all the pretensions

of you, now I start anew,

I wish my way through

the years
