Jesus Fever Lyrics

I’d pack my suitcase with myself
But I’m already gone
Cleanse myself with vitamin health
But I’m already gone

I saw it risin’ through the horizon
And I saw it fall
A Jesus fever’s flowin’ all over
Believers and lovers

In a black hole I found a broken skull
Now I’m already gone
You can write my whole life down in a little book
When I’m already gone

I started shaking and my heart breaking
And my belly crawled
A Jesus Fever’s flowin’ all over
Believers and lovers

When I am a ghost, I’ll see no reason to run
When I’m already gone
If it wasn’t taped, you could escape this song
But I’m already gone

I believe it is about suicide, or at least about death. Or it may be just a breakup. The feeling that the thing is already finished, but the narrator is the only one who knows it. The Jesus Fever is the yearning of the ones left behind that he will come back.

My Interpretation

I have no way of knowing what's in Kurt's heart, but if he is a believer in Jesus, His burning, His fever is a very, very good thing. It is a freeing bliss

Agreed - i would say it differently but you're right. He sees that death will happen and he's already looked at the skull, packed his physical self in contemplation of the end of his physical life - in that way he's already gone - but it's ok because in his mind since he has the Jesus Fever, like the other "believers and lovers" :) very transcendent with beautiful, soaring guitars

he doesn't need to be saved because he's "already gone"
