Heat Lyrics by Above & Below
I seek the truth, in this desert sky fractured with exit wounds.
Propitiating a constellation of moments, I’ve consumed.
Ascensional ***.
I lift up above the rolling, mythic sands
washing time away.
Seconds with god.
Seconds with she.
Eyes, hot white and haemorrhaging tears
of bleeding light. What can she see?
I feel the heat slowly closing in.
I can see the spit hanging from my chin.
A sycophant sipping from the spring,
obsequious, another fiend.
just show me a way…
a way through the heat.
Can she show me a way through the heat?
“Feel the pulse beneath the drone
We exist for that motion alone”
Slow,
hypnagogic,
I roam a sunset dream.
Eyeless in this haze, whispers of raqia reign.
Five children spoke a truth, it glitters in rays of peach…
“We all dissolve eventually”
I feel the heat swallowing me.
I can see the spit gushing from my chin.
A sycophant sipping from the spring,
obsequious, another fiend.
Please just show me a way…
a way through the heat.
“Why do you resist that which may be all?
Why do you resist that which may be everything?”
“Fate and circumstance returns you to this moment,
where your thoughts fold in on themselves.
And you pray for them to be whole again
but their wholeness is their illness”
“When will you understand?”
I’m frightened of understanding…
I’m frightened of who I’m to be…
“Fear is the eater of dreams.”
“Breathe…
Slow.
Let the heat wash over you.
Flow.
Let it flow.
Feel your mind sweat.”
“Is this that which you have sought?”
