Cabin Fever is dreaming of the South
12/18/02

The opportunity is there.
I've got a girl and she waits for me.
I just have to get a way
down there.
There's music in my head
telling me
to get down there.
Get down there.

Am I getting too far in over my head?
I've gotta be smart about any move.
Money's limited
but it's there.
It's ready for the taking.
A clear beverage I'm not
from making a decision today.
This is winter as a spokesperson.
I want to but I'm not.
I know. I can't.
But I can't help it anyways;
I hate the snow and ice.
I know the sun will bring me something.

I'm sick of typing.
I want to hear your hello.
Pass the olive brance of peace
that makes us happy
or head for the hills.
Ol' Grandad's drunk again.

Without finances I dictate freedom.
Besides windows, I do the wash.
I just want to make it out alive.
If there is really a conspiracy out there,
out to get me,
I'll call her Juniper.
The Juniper Conspiracy.
We all live and we try.
Some do best and get snake-bitten
when the past catches up.
I played immune for so long.
I can't do that and remember you.

Please stay warm in a blanket drawn tightly;
in a blanket that you don't need
while basking in a big sun I don't see
'til the calendar pretends it's June.
You get Florida all year 'round.
I get it when I get to talk to you.
All I want to do is escape the blizzards
and reestablish myself within you.
The cities blink solemnly when they count up
the arrivals and the losses.
I know when I'm with you and we blink,
no matter where we are we'll see the gain.
All I want is something better than now.
And I know that when I'm there, it'll come.
