Lyrics

Influenza

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I can tell, I can feel

I can tell, I can feel, I can see

Something is changing

To me change is no stranger

I don't run, I don't hide

I don't run, I don't hide, I don't fight

What fate arranges

I don't think about danger

If it was meant for me

I'd know just when to come

But if I can take it slow

Then I might be in control

In the back of my head

In the back of my head there is doubt

There is suspicion

With my new fascination

I don't know what it is

I don't know what it is, you might say

It's intuition

It's a true indication

I should trust myself

I should beware of this

But it's like a stranger's kiss

And somehow I can't resist

I can feel, I can feel, I can feel

my will slip away

From a strange influenza

I can feel, I can feel, I can feel

my mind slip away

Under your influenza

I can feel, I can feel, I can feel

my heart slip away

Under your influenza

There's a part of my heart

There's a part of my heart that says stop

Please go no further

I just can't take the pressure

So I try to resist

So I try to resist and my heart

Tells me don't bother

That this pain is a pleasure

If I were someone else

I wouldn't disagree

But it's always hard to see

When something's controlling me
