The place phased like a warrior slayed Engraved into the space with his still raised of charcoal sprayed through hallways Praise relays off the walls echoin'
Dirt earth lays beneath my rib cage Givin' birth to invadin' on to path ways Burnt out trees cover streets children once played Sown seeds decay through sacred stones in disarray
the alter used to be placed Interchanged for illuminate smoke filled haze Trace of incense, scents of stayed
Aish Tamid eternally, fire continuously Wondering where you've been, you come on home to me? Tamid eternally, a fire burns continuously Wondering where you've been, won't you, won't you to me?
Flashback, patches of growin' wild in fact Cracked walls black like a kingdom sacked Memories like artifacts yet still intact Melodies wrapped in glass shatter the impact
Air interminglin', ringin' the singin' Of songs once sung, flung, into the rafters Catastrophe struck, the sound stuck, plastered The aftermath a buildin' still standin'
Like a starved man fasting the expandin' Clouds passin', dust particles dancin' in broken of light Streamin' from a shaft into the ceilin' Shh, you feel the ground breathin'
Aish Tamid eternally, burns continuously where you've been, won't you come on home to me? Aish Tamid eternally, a fire burns Wondering where you've been, you, won't you come to me?
Daughter of Zion is lyin' cryin' in the Mornin' slips in siftin' through the darkness Like a mornin' reminisce Having visions of her long gone
Memory drips, rain tip emptiness Intermixed tears fears left unfixed
Walls thin, frozen fortress Like dawn for a day that got skipped Like a life gone wanderin' wilderness Lovesick stripped abyss once luscious
Aish eternally, fire burns continuously Wondering where been, won't you come on home to me? Aish eternally, a fire burns continuously Wondering where been, won't you, won't you come to me?
Paint the scene, so you can see city pickin' up On a bench 14th street, taxis streamin' streaks Spears piercing through my ears, you could the traffic speak Jack hammers drill through the sizzling concrete
Windowsills tangled telephone wires Signs sparking lights flashin' like wildfire My rise, I start to feel paralyzed Let out a sigh, a melody by like an ancient war cry
Sunlight hit the trees, it caught my eye Glistenin', listenin' to the Dancin' through the trees, The city goes in slow motion a dream
I'm left empty like a temple turned a fox den Bus fumes drippin', into city summer sun Siftin' the ash lit vision listenin'
To the hiss liftin' off a ocean Shim, shim, shimmerin', singein' hair on my Whispering ya been? Glim, glim,
From amidst the darkness set with the softness Breeze travelin' across the seas arisen within Mt. Zion comin' in, pickin' up momentum Cuttin' crisply the darkness ridin' on a rhythm
A sizzlin' down the mountain Rippin' ship explodin' like a fountain Overflowin', spillin' the courtyard of Jerusalem
Uncoverin' debris, up the fallen arisen within' To the yiddin Even in Manhattan, Menorah Glowin' in the of destruction
through affliction Brushin' off the Golden standin' strong, flames Like a roarin', risin' out of nothin'
