Voodoo

Voodoo

I don’t know why, this fever won’t go away
With you beside me, I don’t know my name
There’s a little black bag in my chest filled with candles and bones
You make me wander away from my home
With your VOODOO that you done to me

With you beside me, I don’t know my name
So I’ll call myself lucky, and shut off my brain
And listen to the chemicals pumpin’ through my veins
But they’re never loud enough because the memory remains
Of your VOODOO that you done to me

I set myself on fire, just to see what it’s like
But you’ve got me burnin’ and shakin’ all night
And I wish I had some Everclear to put out this fire
But the only thing it ever does is stoke my desire
For your VOODOO that you done to me

By the time you read this letter, I’ll be seven states away
By the time I know I love you, I will be your last mistake
By the time I get to heaven, I don’t think they’ll let me through
So I’ll give the Devil what he’s owed
But I ain’t done with you or your VOODOO…
