"The Fear (Flipped)" lyrics - THE SHINS

[Intro:]
Oh shit
Do you feel fear?
I feel it

Of all the stupid things
A man could feel
While his freedom rings
Oh whoa oh whoa
He'll make you, make you squander the deal
(Can you turn the bass down?)

[Chorus:]
Come back and touch my face
Feel for fever in the night
You look into my eyes
But you don't really recognize me anymore

What am I, blind?
What took me so long?
Can we hit rewind
On somebody's magic bong? Oh

[Chorus:]
Come back and touch your face
I feel for fever in the night
And you look into my eyes
But I don't really recognize you anymore
Not anymore

I passed another pointless year
I was foaming at the mouth
I with my hands ever up
And yours stretching out
I know I've run out of luck
But this fear is a terrible drug
If I only had sense enough
To let it give away to love

[Chorus:]
Come back and touch my face
Feel for fever in the night
You look in, look into my eyes
But you don't really recognize me anymore

[Outro:]
No, not, not, not anymore
Not anymore
