Themes and Interpretation

The themes present in the poetic lines include change, transformation, and anticipation. The blanks can be filled in with 'a revolution coming' and 'a rebirth coming', which fit the anticipation and transformation suggested by the lyrics.

The poetic lines you've presented are filled with vivid imagery and strong emotion, which suggest a narrative at play. They use expressive language to convey a sense of urgency and transformation, potentially indicating a 'revolution' or 'rebirth' coming. Emphasis is placed on the drumming sound, which can be interpreted as a symbol for change or an impending event.

For example, in the lines 'Oh, can you hear the drumming? Oh, there's a revolution coming...', the drumming can symbolize the heartbeat of the anticipated change or revolution. So, filling the blanks, the final lines could read: 'Oh, can you hear the drumming? Oh, there's a revolution coming. Wide awake, the fever burns. Sweat it out, wait my turn. Can you hear the drumming? There's a rebirth coming. All this doubt is creepin' in. Inside out, I shed my skin. Can you hear the drumming?'
