Lyrics:

A silver-plated numbing gum
And Jesus resting on my thumb
A hard to reach malaria
I've got the mood that seems to scare ya
And I'm paranoid, self-destroyed
Believe me, Lord, I'm sorry
I've got the mood that seems to bury ya
I've got the nightmare called
Schizophrenia

I cry, I cry, and I don't know why
The fever becomes my home
I cry, I cry, and I don't know why
The fever becomes my home
Becomes my home

I love it when you're holding me
You have a gentle way of calming
I haven't felt that way since 1993
When my mother held me
I bet you're waiting for a long sob story
Of how I was mistreated again
No, I wasn't built that way
I was strong but desperately brave
And I didn't mean to scare ya
Schizophrenia

I cry, I cry, and I don't know why
The fever becomes my home
I cry, I cry, and I don't know why
The fever becomes my home
Becomes my home
Becomes my home
Becomes my home
I cry, I cry, and I don't know why
I cry, I cry, and I don't know why
It becomes my home
It becomes my home
It becomes my home
The fever becomes my home
Becomes my home
My home
My home
My home
