Looking for fic recommendations with a similar vibe to Iyowa's Heat Abnormal.

Thinking about works that talk about impending doom or apocalyptic/dystopian topics, whether the characters are still trying to stop the end of the world or have already accepted it.
I don't have any fandom in mind, I'd gladly get into one, I just really want to read something that aligns with the songs' themes.

I've pasted the English translation of the lyrics from Genius if anyone wants to read it, but I recommend listening to it (also because it's a good song)

I repeat a dead variable

Counting has made my temperature rise

I scribble down my pitiful soliloquies

With nowhere to send them to

A fear feeling similar to electricity

Fills the blood of my veins

From beyond the thick smoke of particulates

A black kusarigama (chain-sickle) is following me

 

Even if I

Extinguish it

Extinguish it

Extinguish it

Extinguish it

Extinguish it

Extinguish it

Extinguish it

Extinguish it

It won't vanish

 

With an already hoarse throat

The cries I've screamed out are out of tune

Above the armchair

A rotten moon is smiling

 

Right now

Just over there

Just over there

Just over there

Just over there

Just over there

Just over there

Just over there

Just over there

There's something following me

 

After crying with those waving the flags of redemption

The people who set the fire kissed the collection together

Unreconciled but still hiding in the coffin of the skeleton

Whispering again

 

Again

"These are all insane"

"These are all insane"

"These are all insane"

"These are all insane"

"These are all insane"

"These are all insane"

"These are all insane"

"These are all insane"

I whispered to myself

 

If only there were an eternal paradise where everyone was saved

All of the adults spoke of the same thing

The ship they boarded burst into pieces

 

The black star

The black star

The black star

The black star

The black star

The black star

The black star

The black star

Is watching them

 

A wailing light stabs my eyes

A parting bell chimes loudly

A question of the history God has built

Finished with an answer tasting of sand

I repeat a dead variable

Counting has made my temperature rise

I question the star

The same color of someone's sparkling eyes

 

The sadness becomes too much to gather

Eventually flows down and becomes salt

Prayers

Suffering

Sympathy

Even pity

Soon will turn valuable

 

Now even if I turn my back

Even if I turn my back

Even if I turn my back

Even if I turn my back

Even if I turn my back

Even if I turn my back

Even if I turn my back

Even if I turn my back

Even if I turn my back

The screams are just so vivid

 

The fish advises

That there is a virtue in letting go of bliss

Swimming in a sea of ​​self-awareness

The smell of dripping blood fills the void space

 

The black star

The black star

The black star

The black star

The black star

The black star

The black star

The black star

Is watching me

 

I repeat a dead variable

Counting has made my temperature rise

I scribble down my pitiful soliloquies

With nowhere to send them to

 

The crying cells return to the sea

The world's last words are following

As if following the trail swallows have created

Ashen clouds are approaching

 

I beg for a tomorrow with woven honor

My hands are stained with hope

I question the star

The same color of your sparkling eyes

 

If we hold hands together

And love each other

I'll kill the dreams we could never fulfill

The remains of my thoughts

A heat abnormality occurs in it's center

 

The reality is not supposed

To be like this

The reality is not supposed

To be like this

The reality is not supposed

To be like this

The reality is not supposed

To be like this

I can’t stand it

 

With an already hoarse throat

The cries I've screamed out are out of tune

Above the armchair

A rotten moon is laughing

Right now

Just over there

Just over there

Just over there

Just over there

Just over there

Just over there

Just over there

Just over there

There's something following me
