Aish Tamid -MatisYahu[00:00:00]
The place lays phased like a warrior slayed[00:00:23]
Engraved into the space with his sword still raised[00:00:26]
Layers of charcoal sprayed through hallways[00:00:29]
Praise relays off the walls echoing all ways[00:00:31]
Dirt covered earth lays beneath my rib cage[00:00:38]
Giving birth to overgrowth invading on to path ways[00:00:40]
Burnt out trees cover streets where children once played[00:00:44]
Sown seeds decay through sacred stepping stones in disarray[00:00:46]
Where the alter used to be placed inter-changed for bloodstains[00:00:49]
Sunrays illuminate the smoke filled haze[00:00:52]
Trace of incense the scents of sacrifice stayed[00:00:55]
Aish tamid eternally[00:00:58]
Fire burns continuously[00:01:01]
Wondering where you been[00:01:04]
Won't you come to me?[00:01:06]
Aish tamid eternally[00:01:10]
Fire burns continuously[00:01:13]
Wondering where you been[00:01:16]
Won't you come to me?[00:01:18]
Flash back patches of grass growing wild in fact[00:01:21]
Cracked walls burnt black like a kingdom sacked[00:01:24]
Memories like artifacts attacked yet still intact[00:01:27]
Melodies wrapped in glass and shattering with the impact[00:01:30]
Air intermingling ringing with the singing[00:01:34]
Of songs once sung, flung into the rafters[00:01:35]
Catastrophe struck the sound stuck[00:01:39]
Disaster plastered[00:01:41]
The aftermath a blasted building once standing, like a starved man fasting[00:01:42]
The skies expanding clouds passing, dust particles dancing,[00:01:46]
In broken bars of light, streaming from a shaft, slashed into the ceiling,[00:01:50]
Sshhhh, you could feel breathing.the ground [00:01:55]
Aish tamid eternally[00:01:57]
Fire burns continuously[00:02:00]
Wondering where you been[00:02:02]
Won't you come to me?[00:02:05]
Aish tamid eternally[00:02:09]
Fire burns continuously[00:02:11]
Wondering where you been[00:02:14]
Won't you come to me?[00:02:17]
Daughter of Zion is lying crying in the mist[00:02:32]
Morning light slips in, shifting through the darkness[00:02:34]
Like a morning wife reminisce having visions of her long gone prince[00:02:37]
Memories drip rain drops tip towing emptiness[00:02:43]
Intermixed with tears like fears left unfixed[00:02:46]
Walls worn thin frozen fortress like dawn waiting the for sunrise of a day that got skipped[00:02:49]
Like a life gone wrong wandering wilderness[00:02:55]
Lovesick stripped abyss missing once luscious[00:02:58]
Aish tamid eternally[00:03:13]
Fire burns continuously[00:03:16]
Wondering where you been[00:03:19]
Won't you come to me?[00:03:21]
Aish tamid eternally[00:03:25]
Fire burns continuously[00:03:27]
Wondering where you been[00:03:30]
Won't you come to me?[00:03:33]
Ill Paint the scene so you could see, the city's picking up speed[00:03:36]
Im on a bench 14th street, taxi's streaming yellow streaks[00:03:39]
Spears piercing through my ears, you could hear the traffic speak[00:03:42]
Jack hammers drill smackling through the crackling concrete[00:03:45]
Windowsills spilled tangled telephone wires[00:03:48]
Signs sparking neon lights flash like wild fire[00:03:51]
My insides rise I start to feel paralyzed[00:03:53]
Let out a sigh-a melody blew by- like an ancient war cry[00:03:57]
The way the sunlight hit the leaves it really caught my eye,[00:04:00]
Glistening' listening' to the breeze dancing' through the leaves on the trees,[00:04:03]
Freeze, the city move's in slow motion like a dream[00:04:08]
I'm left empty like the temple turned into a fox den[00:05:21]
Bus fumes dripping spitting into city summer sun[00:05:24]
Sifting through the ash dimly lit vision listening[00:05:27]
To the hiss lifting off a nighttime ocean[00:05:30]
Shim, shim, shimmering singeing hair on my skin[00:05:33]
Whispering where ya been[00:05:36]
From amidst the darkness set sail with the softness[00:05:39]
Breeze traveling across the seas arisen from within Mt. Zion[00:05:45]
Wind coming in picking up momentum[00:05:51]
Cutting crisply through the thickness riding on a rhythm[00:05:57]
A rollercoaster sizzling, twisting down the mountain[00:06:02]
Ripping rocket ship exploding like a fountain[00:06:05]
Overflowing spilling through the courtyard of Jerusalem[00:06:07]
I see busting through the rubble, bubbling, drying up the puddles\n[00:06:11]
Uncovering debris lifting up the fallen arisen within[00:06:13]
To reach the yiddin even in Manhattan[00:06:15]
Exposed menorah glowing in the shadows of destruction[00:06:17]
Trailblazing through affliction[00:06:19]
Brushing off the branches golden[00:06:20]
Standing strong flames[00:06:22]
Dancing like a lion roaring rising out of nothing[00:06:23]
