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