Fever Pitch Lyrics

Every minute feels like rush hour

All of the city on automatic pilot

Nobody stops to smell the flowers

And whenever I try to, my brain just overrides it

Stuck in a groove

No matter what I do

I always draw a blank

Running on empty I'm

Working borrowed time

How do I write the next line?

When was the last time I reached fever pitch?

Inside my head the crowd screams silently

I'm trying so hard just to be unhitched

I want so badly to be rid of these brick walls in my head

'Cause I keep coming up blank again and again

I remember when I tested the waters

Now I'm coming up dry, can't open up the borders

Hazardous headaches most every night

I'm looking for keepsakes to hook onto every line

Stuck in a groove

No matter what I do

I always draw a blank

Running on empty I'm

Working borrowed time

How do I write the next line?

When was the last time I reached fever pitch?

Inside my head the crowd screams silently

I'm trying so hard just to be unhitched

I want so badly to be rid of these brick walls in my head

'Cause I keep coming up blank again and again

Has every song already been written?

Has every movie already been made?

I've heard it said that there's nothing new under the sun

Well I'll stop at nothing to get back to blazing guns

When was the last time I reached fever pitch?

Inside my head the crowd screams silently

I'm trying so hard just to be unhitched

I want so badly to be rid of these brick walls in my head

'Cause I keep coming up blank

Yes I keep coming up blank again and again
