about

Base on an actual auditory hallucination (?) experienced in sweltering heat at the 2015 Grey Fox Bluegrass Festival, and a random Lithuanian vocabulary word.

lyrics

"Be cool"
Jesus says
in my head
as I lay
in a stream
watching clouds
disappearing

Filigree vapor curls
And dissolves into blueness
What was the word I learned
Long ago
Debesėlis
Lift me up
Take me away
Debesėlis

"Be cool"
Jesus says
Like the birds of the sky
You'll survive
By the grace
Of the Father

Can we escape the heat
Of the sun like a furnace
Water to gas again
And return
Debesėlis

Can I release the fear
that I feel like a harness
Lift me up, take me away
Debesėlis
