Desire
Poem Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
engorge your greedy soul
hope in mourning it's impossible, n' thoughts
like drills my mind they bore
searching angels, cutting off (their) feathers of gold
to fill my sense of god
waste an hourglass, staring sand reminds me of
all my drilling thoughts
your blood your skin your cries
disconnect, disrespect
it's all mine
don't forget tha when we look up in the sky
your feet step on the ground
and with my pen scratching at the heart of life
signs the heart of life
inept, timeless purpose
life circle ends complete, unarmed
when i'm here you will be gone
The lyrics of Poem's song "Desire" are incredibly powerful, evoking a sense of longing and desperation. The opening lines "redefine me, on a throne like valleys of gold, engorge your greedy soul" suggest a desire to be transformed into something grandiose, to be someone of great power that can demand attention and admiration. The repetition of the word "gold" reinforces this idea, symbolizing something precious and valuable.
The following lines bring a shift in the tone, with the lyrics "hope in mourning it's impossible, n' thoughts like drills my mind they bore." These words conjure up a feeling of despair and hopelessness, as if the singer is trapped in their own thoughts and cannot escape them. The imagery of drilling thoughts adds to this sense of being stuck, as if these thoughts are digging deeper and deeper into the singer's mind, causing them pain and anguish.
The lines "searching angels, cutting off (their) feathers of gold to fill my sense of god" suggest a desire to connect with something greater than oneself. The image of angels cutting off their feathers of gold suggests a sacrifice made in the pursuit of something divine. Yet, the singer's desire to feel this sense of god is not entirely pure, as they are willing to take from others to fill this void within themselves.
The remainder of the lyrics touch upon themes of power, control, and mortality. With lines such as "disconnect, disrespect, it's all mine" and "when I'm here, you will be gone," the song's overall message seems to be one of ruthless ambition and a desire for dominion over others.
