Fever (Demo) Lyric Video // Sarah Dell @sarahdellmusic

Sarah Dell Lyrics:

Don’t say that you’re sorry
And don’t blame the wine
Don’t say the word “accident”
That’s now how it’s defined
Even if you got down
And your knees cracked the ground
And you swore on your grandmother’s grave
It won’t happen again
And you want to pretend
I moved on, I forgot, I forgave

But I’ve got a fever, a hundred and three
‘Cause I’m so sick of you lying to me
But don’t call the doctor, it’s not worth the fee
‘Cause I know the cure, it’ll come when I leave

Your lips keep on moving
You’re starting to cry
Transparently obvious
That it’s all just a lie
Neither true nor sincere
They’re just crocodile tears
Leaving stains on your neck and your cheeks
And you proved I was wrong
About you all along
Not the man that I thought you would be

Now I’ve got a fever, a hundred and three
‘Cause I’m so sick of you lying to me
But don’t call the doctor, it’s not worth the fee
‘Cause I know the cure, it’ll come when I leave

We can’t go back to what we had
The game is done, you showed your hand
And I don’t think I understand why
Why you said the things you said
Then brought a stranger to our bed
The wine was white, the flags were red
And now I’ve let the illness spread

And I’ve got a fever, a hundred and three
‘Cause I’m so (fucking) sick of you lying to me
But don’t call the doctor, it’s not worth the fee
‘Cause I know the cure, it’ll come when I leave

So I’ll set my sights on the crack in the door
‘Cause I’ve read all the signs that you thought I’d ignore
Don’t say you love me, you didn’t before
My temperature’s dropping, I’m finally cured

Our Funeral (LIVE from my hotel room) // Sarah Dell

Our Funeral
by Sarah Dell, Isabel Bailey, and Grace Clem

Lyrics:

You were sharp with your goodbye
And you left me there to bleed
I don’t think that I survived
The death of you and me

So bury me with flowers in my hand
Tell the world “she died from tryna understand”
Leave the answers in the casket if you can
Our funeral
Will be beautiful
If you give a damn

When the tide began to change
It came so suddenly
Failure to communicate
Ended fatally

So bury me with flowers in my hand
Tell the world “she died from tryna understand”
Leave the answers in the casket if you can
Our funeral
Will be beautiful

Though I know my heart’s still beating
For the both of us I’m grieving
The life we lived we let it lay to rest
Maybe this will give me closure
Prove to me it’s really over
I hope one day to say “it’s for the best”

So bury me with flowers in my hand
Tell the world “she died from tryna understand”
Leave the answers in the casket if you can
Our funeral
Will be beautiful
If you give a damn

Heaven Bound Train (Demo) Lyric Video // Sarah Dell

Sarah Dell 2026-01-26 | ©2025 ASCAP
Written and Performed by Sarah Dell
Demo Produced by Sarah Dell

Lyrics:
Silently waiting
The lobby vacating
As time ticks slowly by
White paper walls and
Sterilized halls and
Fathers who say not to cry

I can practically hear you sayin’
“I’ll be fine, just relax and keep prayin’”

So I’ll get on my knees
For a Lord I can’t see
And don’t even know if I believe in
But I’ll follow the way
Go to church every day
If he’ll stop this heaven-bound train leavin’

Watching the hands turn
The hours pass with no word
The doctors have nothing to say
Bright pink of sunrise
It burns in my tired eyes
Turns into the cold light of day

Oh I hate that I’m feeling so helpless
Is asking you to stay all that selfish?

I’ll get on my knees
For a Lord I can’t see
And don’t even know if I believe in
But I’ll follow the way
Go to church every day
If he’ll stop this heaven-bound train leavin’

Oh I’m mad at the driver
I’m mad at the ice
And I’m mad God was looking away
And I don’t want to pray

But I’m on my knees
For a Lord I can’t see
And don’t even know if I believe in
But I’ll follow the way
Go to church every day
If he’ll stop, if he’ll stop

Oh I’ll get on my knees
For a Lord I can’t see
And don’t even know if I believe in
But I’ll follow the way
Go to church every day
If he’ll stop this heaven-bound train leavin’
If he’ll stop this heaven-bound train leavin’

A Good Example (Demo) by Sarah Dell (Lyric Video)

Sarah Dell 2025-11-01 | a song for my dad
©2025 Sarah Dell, ASCAP

Lyrics

When I was just a little girl
You sat me on your knee
You put my tiny hands on yours
And played piano just for me

Daughters learn at your hands
What it means to be a man

I like my coffee black
‘Cause that’s the way you like it too
And everything I am todayI am because of you
And the way you love my momma
With your heart out on your sleeve
You’ve set a good example
Of what a man can be

Are you scared of anything?Do you ever cry?
You paved the runway golden
And you taught me how to fly

I like my coffee black
‘Cause that’s the way you like it too
And everything I am todayI am because of you
And the way you love my momma
With your heart out on your sleeve
You’ve set a good example
Of what a man can be

We’re all getting older now
The way it’s meant to be
When all that’s left are photographs
I’ll make you proud of me

Not Even Friends by Sarah Dell (LIVE from my parents’ house)

Sarah Dell 2025-10-20 | Not Even Friends by Sarah Dell
©2025 Sarah Dell, ASCAP

Lyrics:

Saw you standing on the shoreline
Silhouette that I’d recognize
Halfway ‘cross the world with my back turned
We don’t talk at all these days and
I’m afraid of what you’d say if
You saw all the scars that I have earned
I’m not the girl I used to be
No longer only seventeen
I’ve grown a little jaded over time

I wanna call your name but you’re just
Too damn far away, it’s reminiscent
Of the way we let things end
So I will let you walk on by
Resist the sudden urge to cry
And know we’re better off not even friends

You were strolling hand in hand with
Someone new, I understand that
Time has passed while I’ve been standing still
Waves are crashing on the shore
Can’t even speak, my throat is sore from
Holding back the tears I won’t let spill
And even though it all went wrong
I’m still right here to cheer you on
I couldn’t bet against you if I tried

I wanna call your name but you’re just
Too damn far away, it’s reminiscent
Of the way we let things end
So I will let you walk on by
Resist the sudden urge to cry
And know we’re better off not even friends

Ex Love Of Your Life
music and lyrics by Sarah Riddell

Lyrics:

Ex love of your life

Ive been hearing things about you
Some of them good, some of them bad
Guess I’m wondering what your up to
Im reminiscing ‘bout what we had

Not because I miss you
Honestly I don’t
And not because I kissed you
Those nights when we were alone
I don’t know why
You still cross my mind
But it’s got something to do with this
Heart of mine
I hope you’re well
Yours truly
The ex love of your life

i would say im doing better
if you asked me how id been
i held on to all your letters
and i still read them now and then

Not because I miss you
Honestly I don’t
And not because I kissed you
Those nights when we were alone
I don’t know why
You still cross my mind
But it’s got something to do with this
Heart of mine
I hope you’re well
Yours truly
The ex love of your life

And I don’t blame you after all
The summer turned to fall
But i’d still pick up if you called

Not because I miss you
Honestly I don’t
And not because I kissed you
Those nights when we were alone
I don’t know why
You still cross my mind
But it’s got something to do with this
Heart of mine
I hope you’re well
Yours truly
The ex love of your life

Five And A Half
music and lyrics by Sarah Riddell

Lyrics:

five and a half
hours on the train
passing the time
by writing your name
over and over
til the ink starts to bleed
i know you’re patiently
waiting for me
in the biggest city
that i’ve ever seen

five and a half
months of our lives
that’s all we had
before saying goodbye
and it broke my little heart
cleanly in two
it wasn’t that long but boy
i loved you
and though it’s over
i know it was true

five and a half
years have passed
feelings fade
but memories last
now you’ve fallen in love
with somebody new
and honestly i’m so
happy for you
maybe one day
i will too

No Getting Over You
words and music by Sarah Riddell

Lyrics:
Weeds are growing through the cracks
Evidence that time has passed
On this old street we used to walk
And though we never even talk
You’re the only thought I have

Light a candle, touch the flame
Do you feel any pain?
Do you think about the things you’ve lost?
The heart you threw away without a second thought
Broken promise, empty words
Said I was fine, it didn’t hurt
Now I know what is true
There’s no getting over you

i’ve lost count of all the days
i drove my car past our old place
But it’s not empty on the street
the ghost of us, it wouldn’t leave
so unlike you in that way

Light a candle, touch the flame
Do you feel any pain?
Do you think about the things you’ve lost?
The heart you threw away without a second thought
Broken promise, empty words
Said i was fine, it didn’t hurt
Now I know what is true
There’s no getting over

Your smile, your face, my saving grace
The way you walked me back to your place
your hand in mine, your hazel eyes
the way you kissed me that last time

Light a candle, touch the flame
Do you feel any pain?
Do you think about the things you’ve lost?
The heart you threw away without a second thought
Broken promise, empty words
Said i was fine, it didn’t hurt
Now I know what is true
There’s no getting over you
Over you

Gradual Descent // Sarah Dell

Sarah Dell 2024-11-05 | this is another reminder to get out today and VOTE

Lyrics:
Teachers they taught us the war’s over there
Sounds like a story intended to scare
Is it reality if it’s not happening right in front of your eyes?

The temperature’s rising, the water is too
The ice caps are melting, it says on the news
There’s a hole in the ozone, I think I’ll just go home
And watch the red sun rise

Everyone saw the signs, and we heard the warning bells
Is this the way God designed our gradual descent into hell?

Neighbors are fighting, it’s red against blue
Whole town’s divided based on who you choose
The bigots are screaming, so cruel and demeaning
What’s left when they are through?

The children are speaking but you turn away
The people in power they feed off the hate
The future held captive by those who can’t have it
And all of us will lose

Everyone saw the signs, and we heard the warning bells
Is this the way God designed our gradual descent into hell?

They’re banning the books, overturning our rights
They’ll say “go back home” if your skin isn’t white
They’re building a wall and there’s guns in the schools
This country is run by a congress of fools

Everyone saw the signs, and we heard the warning bells
Is this the way God designed our gradual descent into hell?

But don’t let the fire consume you, ‘Cause change it comes with the wind
One shot straight to the heart of the truth is how revolutions begin

Ready By Then // Sarah Dell

Sarah Dell 2024-10-10 | new little (non-autobiographical) breakup song !!

Lyrics:

We played a game nobody won
Started off as something fun
But baby it’s over, it’s done
Don’t say anymore

Lessons were taught and were learned
Bridges were built and then burned
And soon everything will return
To how they were before

I’m sorry if you got the wrong impression
I wish I had a teary-eyed confession
To give

‘Cause for a moment I could see it
And I wanted to believe it
I guess I had my reasons
For calling the end
Don’t look over your shoulder
Just call me when you’re older
And maybe we’ll be bolder
And ready by then
Oh maybe we’ll be bolder
And ready by then

It’s not your fault babe, it’s mine
I couldn’t not tell a lie
Leaving might just make it right
So don’t ask me to stay

Now I sit alone at the bar
Knocking back drinks in the dark
Watching your life from afar
But it’s better this way

I’m not the type to wallow in emotion
But maybe i’ll just leave the back door open
For you

‘Cause for a moment I could see it
And I wanted to believe it
I guess I had my reasons
For calling the end
Don’t look over your shoulder
Just call me when you’re older
And maybe we’ll be bolder
And ready by then
Oh maybe we’ll be bolder
And ready by then

And I still don’t sleep through the night
And I wonder if I was right
Are you happier in spite
Of the mess I made?

‘Cause for a moment I could see it
And I wanted to believe it
I guess I had my reasons
For calling the end
Don’t look over your shoulder
Just call me when you’re older
And maybe we’ll be bolder
And ready by then
Oh maybe we’ll be bolder
And ready by then

Link: on.soundcloud.com/dyzDwsTNCfiSbhwp9

Lyrics:
There’s a sign on the door
Says they’re closing at four
‘Cause business is moving slow
I know what you’ll say
“Sorry I’m running late
Can you order me a latte to go?”
Busy streets and busy lives
We’re being pulled apart
I can’t save my wounded pride
Are you gonna break my heart?

I’ll sit and watch the people through the window
Walking past with fragile plans and egos
I’ll sit and watch the people through the window
Acting like I’ve got somewhere to go

There ain’t nowhere to run
At this table for one
But this isn’t something new
I’ve been left all alone
More times than I know
It’s a habit you fell into
Or it’s a symptom of a bigger
Problem that we have
Cut out all the broken parts
But what’s left after that?

I’ll sit and watch the people through the window
Walking past with fragile plans and egos
I’ll sit and watch the people through the window
Acting like I’ve got somewhere to go

I’ve been putting up with mediocre for so long now
If this is the end, what’s the point in pretending
We’re gonna work it out?

I’ll sit and watch the people through the window
Walking past with fragile plans and egos
I’ll sit and watch the people through the window
Acting like I’ve got somewhere to go

Lyrics:

*lighter click*

Empty bottles on the sink
Instructions say “take one a day”
All the doctors seem to think
This is the way to stop the pain
The highs and lows, they come and go
But I don’t feel them anymore

Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the maddest of them all?
The girl that’s spinning in a dress to take her mind off loneliness
And mirror, mirror show me why the pills numb everything inside
All I feel is emptiness, that’s better
It’s better, I guess

Though the lows were fathoms deep
I can’t lie, I miss the highs
Vines of envy start to creep
Around my thighs for those who died
And I pretend I’m on the mend
Putting on a show to please the crowd

Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the maddest of them all?
The girl that’s spinning in a dress to take her mind off loneliness
And mirror, mirror show me why the pills numb everything inside
All I feel is emptiness, that’s better
It’s better, I guess

Mirror, mirror who am I?
Nothing even makes me cry
Mirror, mirror who am I?
Nothing really makes me cry

Lyrics:

You’ve been telling me a lot of stories recently
About this guy you met named Adam from your pickup soccer team
And I’m pretending I’m not crumbling to the ground
They said I should pray and make the feelings go away
But I’m just happy to be near you, there’s nothing I can say
Unrequited, uninvited, I’ll keep it down

What if things had gone differently?
What if I didn’t scare so easily?
I have learned the hard way honesty’s the way to go
‘Cause I’m in love with somebody who never gets to know

I’ll stand by the side and watch your heart break for some guy
But if I had my way no tears would ever leave your eyes
Love the friendship, hate the bullshit
I’ve done this to myself

What if things had gone differently?
What if I didn’t scare so easily?
I have learned the hard way honesty’s the way to go
‘Cause I’m in love with somebody who never gets to know

I have this dream where you’re running straight for me
And I open my arms and you come crashing gracefully into me
Ooooh

I wish things had gone differently
Wish that I didn’t scare so easily
What if things had gone differently?
What if I didn’t scare so easily?
I have learned the hard way honesty’s the way to go
‘Cause I’m in love with somebody who never, never gets to know

Lyrics:

When the days get too hard
And the nights get too long
I know I’ll find sanctuary in your arms
So if you go looking for me
That’s where I’ll be

I’ve always been okay with being alone
But I’m finding it harder now that I am grown
My hands grip the wheel
I don’t know how to feel
When the world takes a turn for the worse

When the days get too hard
And the nights get too long
I know I’ll find sanctuary in your arms
So if you go looking for me
That’s where I’ll be

You’re like a song that I’ve sung
A thousand times
I know every harmony
I know every rhyme
You’re holding my hand and
I don’t understand
Why you keep sticking ‘round like you do

When the days get too hard
And the nights get too long
I know I’ll find sanctuary in your arms
So if you go looking for me
That’s where I’ll be

We’ve travelled this broken road
Eyes on the sun
I forget who I was
Before I found the one
And maybe this life is our
One chance at love
You’re the one that I choose
Forever because

When the days get too hard
And the nights get too long
I know I’ll find sanctuary in your arms
So if you go looking for me
That’s where I’ll be

When the days get too hard
And the nights get too long
I know I’ll find sanctuary in your arms
So if you go looking for me
That’s where I’ll be

What’s happened to me?
I’m feeling emptiness, ‘stead of empathy
And reality says that someone may be dying

Ooooh, there’s a shadow that sits on my soul
Ooooh, and I’m feeling the weariness grow
Guess that’s life, don’t you know?

I, I drove around
Past the ambulance and the siren sounds
And I listened as they faded into the night
I’m not ready yet
All of this elegance feels inappropriate
And this party, it’s the last thing on my mind

Ooooh, there’s a shadow that sits on my soul
Ooooh, and I’m feeling the weariness grow
Guess that’s life, don’t you know?

Give me a minute more
I’m not quite ready for
All of the stares from your
Family and friends, and I’ll
Put on my makeup and
Try not to think of the
Accident site that’s just
Five miles behind me, and

Ooooh, there’s a shadow that sits on my soul
Ooooh, and I’m feeling the weariness grow
Guess that’s life, don’t you know?

Lyrics:
I used to like myself
I kept my own company
Now I’ve overstayed my own welcome
Everyone’s tired of me
The night is young, the stars are out
But I really don’t care

I’ll sit on the couch
Put on a show
Probably one that I already know
Push out the thoughts
I hear in the pauses
Between lines and between episodes
Because it hurts to dwell on the
Should-have-beens, and old what-ifs
And I-don’t-knows
I’ll, I’ll keep my mind
Preoccupied
‘Cause it’s better than feeling alone
Oooh

I don’t remember the sunlight
I’m scratching days on the walls
Actions don’t have consequences
And I feel nothing at all
I try to yell, to cry for help
But I can’t make a sound

I’ll sit on the couch
Put on a show
Probably one that I already know
Push out the thoughts
I hear in the pauses
Between lines and between episodes
Because it hurts to dwell on the
Should-have-beens, and old what-ifs
And I-don’t-knows
I’ll, I’ll keep my mind
Preoccupied
‘Cause it’s better than feeling alone
Oooh

Lyrics:

Covers me in blankets and turns out the light
Kisses on my head while holding me tight
Sing a song, say a prayer, dream of wonderful things
As I drift off to sleep, mother bird, keeping watch, softly sings:

I know you want to stay away and I wish that I could let you
To play some more, to have more time to say all that I want to
But we’ll say goodnight and I’ll let you go
I love you too much to not let you grow
Sleep well, sleep well my beautiful girl

Grabs my hat and gloves, says “it’s getting kind of cold out
The moving van is good to go, but what if it should break down?”
Waves goodbye, says a prayer, time for wonderful things
As I fly from the nest, mother bird, left behind, softly sings

I know you want to stay away and I wish that I could let you
To play some more, to have more time to say all that I want to
But we’ll say goodnight and I’ll let you go
I love you too much to not let you grow
Sleep well, sleep well my beautiful girl

And she trusts me enough to let me fly away
And she’ll be there if I ever lose my way
And this is what she’ll say

I know you want to stay away and I wish that I could let you
To play some more, to have more time to say all that I want to
But we’ll say goodnight and I’ll let you go
I love you too much to not let you grow
Sleep well, sleep well my beautiful girl

Lyrics:

Five and a half
Hours on the train
Passing the time
By writing your name
Over and over ‘til the ink starts to bleed
I know you’re patiently waiting for me
In the biggest city
That I’ve ever seen

Five and a half
Months of our lives
That’s all we had
Before saying goodbye
And it broke my little heart cleanly in two
It wasn’t that long but damn I loved you
And though it’s over
I know it was true

Five and a half
Years have passed
Feelings fade
But memories last
Now you’ve fallen in love with somebody new
And honestly I’m so happy for you
Maybe one day
I will too
