Heat and dark

For what it's worth
There's nowhere else that I belong
Dust and earth
Feeling weak where I felt strong
And all these days
I spend my second foolishly
For through my gaze
There's only so much I can see

So here we are
Though I can barely tell at all
In heat and dark
Lying low where I stood tall

And still, I wait
For total pitch, or clarity
Spinning straight
Through crushing heat and cool release
And I'll be here
To watch the passing of the days
Not calm, not clear
Just time to settle in my ways

So here we are
Though I can barely tell at all
In heat and dark
Lying low where I stood tall
