FEVER
Sunsleep Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The clock keeps ticking, my head is spinning, feels like a heart attack
Breathing out the chaos from within
We've grown heavy hearted, afraid and guarded, can we begin again
Burning like a fever, someone get me out of this Help me find the peace within
Thrown into the river, reaching out for a hand Find a way out of my head
Or the last time it comes on all at once
Oh I know that it's all in my head
When these voices keep telling me you're better off dead
Take me or leave me for all that it's worth
See through a lens that is clouded by dirt It's an illusion we fight in out head
We all have the key to set ourselves free again
Burning like a fever, someone get me out of this Help me find the peace within
Thrown into the river, reaching out for a hand Find a way out of my head
It's not the first time that I've felt the burn
Or the last time it comes on all at once
Oh I know that it's all in my head
When these voices keep telling you're I'm better off dead
Burning like a fever, someone get me out of this Help me find the peace within
Thrown into the river, reaching out for a hand Find a way out of my head
Feels like a heart attack
The song "Fever" by Sunsleep depicts the artist's struggle with anxiety and depression. The opening lines, "Slow me down, cause I've been losing track, the clock keeps ticking, my head is spinning, feels like a heart attack," illustrate the overwhelming feeling of anxiety taking over the artist's mind and body. The chorus, "Burning like a fever, someone get me out of this, help me find the peace within," further emphasizes the artist's desire to escape the emotional turmoil and find inner peace.
The artist also acknowledges that this is not the first time they have experienced such intense emotions, and it won't be the last, but they recognize that it is all in their head. The line "When these voices keep telling me you're better off dead," is particularly powerful as the artist confronts the negative self-talk and suicidal ideation that often accompanies anxiety and depression.
However, the song ends on a hopeful note, "We all have the key to set ourselves free again," reminding listeners that they have the power to overcome their inner demons and find a way out of their chaotic thoughts. Overall, Sunsleep's "Fever" is a raw and emotional portrayal of the struggles of mental health that many people face.

Sunsleep is sooo underrated, but SO GOOD, it's unfortunate. The band has a very unique "dreamy" sound to their music that I honestly don't hear often within rock genre.
