SAUNA Lyrics
Out past beyond the field
inside the birches
under rising steam:
a small room.
To prove I don’t exist,
to show that I am beyond
this animal form
and this lost mind.
Or am I?
The wood heats up
and cracks and pulls apart
the way a body groans.
I transform
and the stars show.
I don’t think the world
still exists.
Only the room in the snow
and the light from coals
and only
this
breath.
I annihilate all sensation
(abandoned breath,
hanging in the branches)
with the glowing core exposed,
head first into the frozen lake.
(Into the lake, mid-winter
cutting through
all waking thoughts)
In rain and wind
and blanketing night
(shown at last)
standing under steam rising.
My life is a small fire
I carry around.
(coming into a clearing)
Glowing coals
on the wet ground.
inside the birches
under rising steam:
a small room.
to show that I am beyond
this animal form
and this lost mind.
Or am I?
and cracks and pulls apart
the way a body groans.
I transform
and the stars show.
still exists.
Only the room in the snow
and the light from coals
and only
this
breath.
(abandoned breath,
hanging in the branches)
with the glowing core exposed,
head first into the frozen lake.
cutting through
all waking thoughts)
In rain and wind
and blanketing night
(shown at last)
standing under steam rising.
I carry around.
(coming into a clearing)
Glowing coals
on the wet ground.
