Lyrics

Temperature's Rising

My temperature's rising, my fingers are tingling
I'm starting to shake
I look in the mirror and everything's funny
I think you're a fake
Why did I do it, how could I say that?
I wanna come down
Everything's swirling and I just forgot
Why I came to this town

So now I think I'm all tied up
So now I think I'm tangled up
Oh, no and I can't see no more
Oh, no and I can't see no more

My temperature's rising, my fingers are tingling
I'm starting to shake
I look in the mirror and everything's funny
I think I'm a fake
Why did I do it, how could I say that?
I wanna come down.
Everything's swirling and I just forgot
Why I came to this town

So now I think I'm all tied up
So now I think I'm tangled up
Oh, no and I can't see no more
Oh, no and I can't see no more

So now I think I'm all tied up
So now I think I'm tangled up
Oh, no and I can't see no more
Oh, no and I can't see no more
