It wasn’t long, though, before vocalist Dave Stovall and bassist Matt Lott caught a grander vision for what their music and purpose could be. A few years of growth and evolution, some line-up changes and a couple hundred shows later, Wavorly bursts onto the national scene with their Flicker Records debut, Conquering The Fear of Flight (in stores nationwide), a sprawling modern rock masterpiece that blends elements of alternative, classic progressive rock, indie-rock and hard rock with highly literate lyrics, a boldly imaginative use of strings and a sublime sense of melody. In the league of other genre-stretching acts like Relient K, Muse, My Chemical Romance, Mae and Switchfoot, Wavorly rocks with heart and mind intact.

Twenty Twenty
Wavorly Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Time flies when you have fun
But when the world falls down you turn and run
Like it's over now, over now
But there's more to Who you say you know
And it's your own fault your faith won't show
Like it's over now, over now
And it's your time

Your time though no signs seem congruent
You'll find the design plays into it
Time to let this go, you never had control
We can look back to when He was there for us

Take all that you have learned when you were on your face
Now it's your turn to give it out, give it out
Looking back to when the lights went out
There never was a reason for you to doubt
And it's over now, over now
And it's your time

Your time though no signs seem congruent
You'll find the design plays into it
Time to let this go you never had control
Look back home weary soul
Recall the times of old to face the new

Your faith will overcome
We can look back to when He was there for us

Line by Line Meaning

Time flies when you have fun
Time seems to go quickly when you are enjoying yourself

But when the world falls down you turn and run
When things get tough, you tend to avoid them rather than face them head-on

Like it's over now, over now
You feel like everything has come to an end, and there is no more hope left

But there's more to Who you say you know
Your faith should provide you with more strength than you currently realize

And it's your own fault your faith won't show
You are not allowing your faith to be visible because you are holding back

And it's your time
Now is the time for you to take charge of your situation

Your time though no signs seem congruent
Although it may not seem like things are aligning, it is still your time to step up

You'll find the design plays into it
Things may not make sense now, but eventually, it will all come together

Time to let this go, you never had control
It is time to relinquish control over the situation because you never really had control in the first place

We can look back to when He was there for us
Looking back at times when God was with us can provide strength and comfort

Take all that you have learned when you were on your face
Reflect on the lessons you learned during difficult times when you were at your lowest point

Now it's your turn to give it out, give it out
It is now your time to share and use the wisdom you have gained

Looking back to when the lights went out
Reflecting on when things were at their darkest

There never was a reason for you to doubt
There was never a valid reason for you to lose faith

And it's over now, over now
Whatever you were going through has come to an end

And it's your time
Now is the moment to move forward and seize the opportunity

Look back home weary soul
You can look back at your past and take comfort in it

Recall the times of old to face the new
Remember past experiences to gain the strength to face current challenges

Your faith will help you overcome anything

We can look back to when He was there for us
Thinking back to moments when God has been present will provide reassurance
