I think I need to take a breath

When I savor the flavor, another cigarette

Why do I begin to sweat?

A burning sensation, I feel it in my chest

Should have grabbed an anesthetic

Am I going crazy? Maybe, am I that pathetic?

Should I call the paramedics? But they're not that sympathetic

But my hands are always shaking, and I want them to be steady, dear

I'm hearing all the static, getting so erratic

I know I don't wanna panic, but the volume's on 11, demons hidden in my attic

Am I even from this planet? Tell me, am I schizophrenic? Yeah

(Oh-oh-oh) symptomatic (oh-oh-oh) this disease

(Oh-oh-oh) so dramatic, panic automatically

(Oh-oh-oh) symptomatic (oh-oh-oh) this disease

(Oh-oh-oh) so dramatic, panic automatically

Can't stop this rising temperature

Can't stop this rising temperature

Stop this rising, stop this rising

Stop this rising temperature (oh-oh-oh; oh!)

Can't stop this rising temperature

Can't stop this rising temperature

Can't stop this (panic automatically)

Can't stop this rising temperature

Can't stop this rising temperature

Can't stop this (panic automatically)

Filled with pain in my head again

Don't know which way that I'm heading in

I should just stay and forget it, then

But I keep misplacing my medicine

Can't get it right, so I left it in

So I just swallow regrets again

Wish I could replace my attention span

Look out, 'cause it's got me remembering

(Oh-oh-oh) symptomatic (oh-oh-oh) this disease

(Oh-oh-oh) so dramatic, panic automatically

(Oh-oh-oh) symptomatic (oh-oh-oh) this disease

(Oh-oh-oh) so dramatic, panic automatically

Can't stop this rising temperature

Can't stop this rising temperature

Stop this rising, stop this rising

Stop this rising temperature (oh-oh-oh; oh!)

Can't stop this rising temperature (oh-oh-oh)

Can't stop this rising temperature (oh-oh-oh)

Can't stop this (panic automatically)

Can't stop this rising temperature (oh-oh-oh)

Can't stop this rising temperature (oh-oh-oh)

Can't stop this (panic automatically)

And I'm feeling so manic (manic, manic, manic)

So of course I'm gonna panic (panic, panic, panic)

I've just about had it (had it, had it, had it)

Now I'll fade into the static (fade into the static, fade into the static)

And the urgency of emergency

We forget who we are and aim to be

If the mercury rises to 103

Fill the tub with ice to break the fevering

Can't stop this rising temperature

Can't stop this rising temperature

Stop this rising, stop this rising

Stop this rising temperature (oh-oh-oh; oh!)

Can't stop this rising temperature (oh-oh-oh)

Can't stop this rising temperature (oh-oh-oh)

Can't stop this (panic automatically)

Can't stop this rising temperature (oh-oh-oh)

Can't stop this rising temperature (oh-oh-oh)

Can't stop this (panic automatically)
