It comes during the night

You’re sweating, hold your pillow tight

Reality the true nightmare,

An illness you don’t want to cure

It creeps within your blood

Iron cancer, chaos unbound

The hammer pounding in your brain,

Metal’s gonna kill you insane

It’s the black steel fever, poisoning your dreams

You crave it, you can’t live without it

Riffs are vital needs

It’s the black steel fever, normal life you can’t accept

Drilling, relentless beating

A demon breeding in your chest

Another night is over, daylight is your enemy

Melissa is still there, menacing your sanity

Possessed by demons of the blackest steel

Realize that only death is real

Again the black steel fever, calling doctor rock ‘n’ roll

Still the black steel fever, the bell never ends to toll
