"About To Break" lyrics - THIRD EYE BLIND

I was walking alone on the ocean
I felt a fever burning up all I am
'Cause if there's one thing that I can't stand
It's standing next to my fellow man, ah ah ah, ah ah ah

It's about to break, oh

For the social worker at the needle exchange
For the soft medicated and the hard deranged
For the lesbians at the bakery
Saying, "Do you really hate me?"

It's about to break

Break like a fever
It's about to break
Break like a fever

People looking for themselves inside of mirrors
Or not knowing why you're here
Public appearance is the verge of tears
When you're out laid up on weed and beer

Stand up now to get a look at you
Can we all take a part of you?
Stand up now to get a look at you
Can we all take a part of you?

You're dangerous with a stinger missile
Weapons hot, thinking this will
We won't make them follow orders
Doctors without borders

It's about to break
It's about to break
Break like a fever

When I see your face, I wanna be in the human race
(Break like a fever)
You're beautiful, it's true, I wanna be beautiful like you
(Break like a fever)
When I see your face, I wanna be in the human race
(Break like a fever)
You're beautiful, it's true, I wanna be beautiful like you
(Break like a fever)
For the teenage mother with the baby asleep
(Break like a fever)
For Africa where life is cheap
(I wanna be beautiful like you)

For losing faith in who you're going with
America fades into myth
