Heavenfaced Lyrics

That second-to-last bit is amazing:

"She’s a griever, my believer"

So the narrator is talking about how this woman approaches things solemnly and seriously and what she means to him...

"It’s not a fever, it’s a freezer"

...and how her way of seeing things isn't feverish (she's not "heavenfaced," she's not "high") but cold...

"I believe her, I'm a griever now"

...and how he eventually is won over to her way of looking at things. A really smart way of communicating the sort of circular nature of that kind of conversion, and one that fits well with the rest of the lyrics.
