Lyrics (unofficial)

In a deep fever
I come across your book
Your hand upon my lever
And all the stuff in which I partook
And the miracles are stupid
They're so easily pulled off
All my pride, unjustified
My people, my people you've grown soft

Jezebel when you fell
Falling all around me
Jezebel can you tell
I wish you never found me
Jezebel what the hell
Throw your spell around me
Wish you'd never found me
Wish you'd never drowned me in your love

In a deep ravine
A prophet waits for food
And the Lord sends a raven to feed him
Depending on his mood
But the world is still evil
And Jezebel's your name
She flashed naked in my thoughts
Filling me with shame

In a deep alliance
Connected to the grid
I got no faith in science
And all the misery that it hid
The water killed the swan
And the air killed the dove
Jezebel you come to me
But you ain't got no love
