Back To Dust 05:00
Do you wonder if the wind blows when you whisper my name In the darkness where you always can be found When you’re floating past the bridge you crossed just to forget my face Do you ever want to stop and turn around? I wonder I wonder how I feel I wonder, how am I supposed to feel? If light won’t wait for the morning And I won’t wait for the light Everyone in their own words Now will fade back down to dust Do you wonder if my skin crawls when you whisper in my ear All the reasons we would never have worked out If you bite the hand that feeds while you’re down and on your knees again Begging for grace I wonder I wonder how I feel I wonder, how am I supposed to feel?

I wanted love and everybody outside wanted the same When you find it again, would you both understand? Do you really want to know this time? I wanted trust and everybody outside wanted the same When you find it again, would you both understand? Do you really want to know this time? I’m starting again.

Halo 02:49
I woke in the midst of a sleepless night with the light of you in my room So I walked the streets alone Every night it’s always the same thing I see into their homes I walked to the river to clear my head but your image it chased me down And I was scared of it Every night do you feel the same way? Are you scared? Do you want it all? I can’t for the life of me soon forget the weight of the world you love Steady as she goes, ‘cause this goes on and on and on and on I don’t want to know when the weight of it all breaks your heart Everyone outside hangs their halos on the back of their door And then just looks away Do you want it all?

Dark Horse 02:36
You left with words on the back of your tongue It isn’t right to be exactly what they want I’m over and under it We’re staring holes in the wall Waiting for calls that just won’t come Our heartbreak is visible to everyone Come lay down with me (for now) This is a noose and I’m hanging around Staring at the spinning ground You wrote it all down inside a note “I am a dark horse running around I steal what you love Just hang there as it leaves your hands” Come lay down with me
5.
Wicked Land 03:46
I can hear the train, coming all across this wicked land I once thought I knew it, but it seems that has an end Do you remember being young? Do you remember feeling so damn lost? With my hands lifted up I sang of things I’d never know And I’m a sucker for a kind word A cheap shot, a set of legs Yeah I’m all got And I don’t know what’s left to say About time… guess we pack it up and get out of line I don’t want to be the good guy If it means I lose my mind I can hear your voice ringing out across this wicked land I once thought I knew it but it seems that has an end This is not the way it ends This is not what you wanted For me For them

Gibreel 03:13
He holds the keys to your bones, in the garden but it’s well guarded I wonder how it looked to you, when he was screaming Of rebirth and stardom, when I become a martyr I wonder how to make you see, it’s not right at all It wasn’t right, you came in like a thief in the night It wasn’t right, you stole our love and left us here alone Here lies the son-of-a-bitch with no father, he lived well-guarded I wonder how it looked to you when he was screaming Of rebirth and stardom, when he became a martyr Look at what you’ve done You killed your only son I’m coming up This place is mine tonight I will fly away.

Write it down in the back of what you read Give him a better life than the one that you had Hope to God he works for every day And doesn’t waste it all the way your father did And everybody knows My head’s in the sand Everybody knows Exactly where I stand right now We don’t want you to lack anything Especially not the things that you need We hope that God works in you every day Making you the man that he wants you to be And everybody knows My head’s in the sand Everybody knows Exactly where I stand right now We are proud of the man we raised Your father and I will love you always We hope your heart guides you every day And that you’re thankful for every breath you take
8.
I woke up in the back of the ambulance There were tires screeching, sirens calling my name And I drifted back into their harsh words And I thought of you Every word you say makes me who I am I woke up in surprise at this hospital gown and these bright lights The stage is set for an early exit And I’ll be leaving soon, stronger hands pulled me down and I said Every word you say makes me who I am
9.
Toy Soldiers 03:26
I rolled the dice Everyone here is still alive It looks like I got it right I just saved your life I rolled the dice I ain’t got no soul I lost it in the war When I am dead and gone They will fall alone I rolled the dice You want it straight? We’re all running away. Life caught up with love and left us tired now I locked the door, I drank myself to sleep And then I got up.
10.
Evac 02:51
Everyone got the message “Pack it up and move it on Every place you love, is now gone” Everyone is on their knees Trying their hardest to please an angry God I try to get it almost every time Let’s go out in style Everyone wants the message Prettied up and dumbed down “Every person you love, is now mine.” I don’t want to be the only person feeling sad and lonely When it comes down to it I try to get it almost every time Let’s go out in style When the good is gone where do you go to draw the line? Just stand there waiting for a sign I tried to go out, in.

Making God 04:12
I saw God in the street, he asked me if I had some change for just a bite to eat I looked at Him, I went and turned away I saw God in the street, the track marks inching up his arm made it hard for him to speak I looked at Him, I went and turned away I don’t know what it means To love everyone as He loved us all A great big family ‘Cause every time I wake up I get bored Do it again say You won’t ever leave my side I see God in everything The mountains that you’re trying to move And the cancer you can’t shake ‘Cause every time you pray it leaves Him bored Do it again say You won’t ever leave, my God Do it again fill me up ‘till I overflow My God came, He filled me up then left me alone And I don’t know just what it meant those years ago Everyone here will die, maybe you’ll fly Maybe you’ll burn And I’m not afraid of where I go, just how I will get there from here Do it again Say You will I saw God in me The way that He’s always running away and losing faith in things I’m afraid this is the god I’ve made.

Communion 03:24
I sleep to the sound of Angels singing over me I wake to the voices of Demons saying “Look at the mess your God has made Can He fix it? Will His grace ever change?” If I run to you would I believe? If I run to you would I be free? I walk to the rhythm of my lungs guiding me I walk the oh-so-straight and narrow most days But at the end of that plank I see my friends singing “Look at the mess you made. You deserve your Savior” If I run to you would I believe? If I run to you would I be free? If I run to you would you help me see Why my shit seems so never-ending I feel like I’m all grown up now Because I don’t understand just what God does I don’t find the joy in my life I’ve been locking my jaw down on something soft and warm “Son, this is my body Broken for you, now take and eat.” And I eat... And I eat… But I can’t get filled up.

about

Fever Hymns Charlotte, North Carolina

Fever Hymns started with Jon Davis and Jordan Staley playing songs in a basement. That’s where it should have stayed but unfortunately they decided to take the music no one had asked for to the people who had never asked for it. Thus Fever Hymns was born. Kyle Jones and Jeremy Maher joined the band in 2013 and the songs that had been were completed and more were written. ... more
