Aish Tamid

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 echoin' alwaysDirt covered earth lays beneath my rib cage

Givin' birth to overgrowth invadin' on to path ways

Burnt out trees cover streets where children once played

Sown seeds decay through sacred steppin' stones in disarrayWhere the alter used to be placed

Interchanged for bloodstains

Sunrays illuminate smoke filled haze

Trace of incense, scents of sacrifice stayedAish Tamid eternally, fire burns continuously

Wondering where you've been, won't you come on home to me?

Aish Tamid eternally, a fire burns continuously

Wondering where you've been, won't you, won't you come to me?Flashback, patches of grass growin' wild in fact

Cracked walls burnt black like a kingdom sacked

Memories like artifacts attacked yet still intact

Melodies wrapped in glass shatter with the impactAir interminglin', ringin' with the singin'

Of songs once sung, flung, hung into the rafters

Catastrophe struck, the sound stuck, disaster plastered

The aftermath a blasted buildin' still standin'Like a starved man fasting the skies expandin'

Clouds passin', dust particles dancin' in broken bars of light

Streamin' from a shaft slashed into the ceilin'

Shh, you could feel the ground breathin'Aish Tamid eternally, fire burns continuously

Wondering where you've been, won't you come on home to me?

Aish Tamid eternally, a fire burns continuously

Wondering where you've been, won't you, won't you come to me?Daughter of Zion is lyin' cryin' in the mist

Mornin' light slips in siftin' through the darkness

Like a mornin' wife reminisce

Having visions of her long gone princeMemory drips, rain drops tip

Towin' emptiness

Intermixed with tears

Like fears left unfixedWalls worn thin, frozen fortress

Like dawn waitin' for a day that got skipped

Like a life gone wrong wanderin' wilderness

Lovesick stripped abyss [Incomprehensible] once lusciousAish Tamid eternally, fire burns continuously

Wondering where you've been, won't you come on home to me?

Aish Tamid eternally, a fire burns continuously

Wondering where you've been, won't you, won't you come to me?Paint the scene, so you can see city pickin' up speed

On a bench 14th street, taxis streamin' yellow streaks

Spears piercing through my ears, you could hear the traffic speak

Jack hammers drill smackin' through the sizzling concreteWindowsills spilling tangled telephone wires

Signs sparking neon lights flashin' like wildfire

My insides rise, I start to feel paralyzed

Let out a sigh, a melody blew by like an ancient war crySunlight hit the trees, it really caught my eye

Glistenin', listenin' to the breeze

Dancin' through the trees, freeze

The city goes in slow motion like a dreamI'm left empty like a temple turned into a fox den

Bus fumes drippin', spittin' into city summer sun

Siftin' through the ash

Dimly lit vision listenin'To the hiss liftin' off a nighttime ocean

Shim, shim, shimmerin', singein' hair on my skin

Whispering where ya been?

Glim, glim, glimmerin'From amidst the darkness set sail with the softness

Breeze travelin' across the seas arisen from within Mt. Zion

Wind comin' in, pickin' up momentum

Cuttin' crisply through the darkness ridin' on a rhythmA rollercoaster sizzlin'

Twistin' down the mountain

Rippin' rocket ship explodin' like a fountain

Overflowin', spillin' through the courtyard of JerusalemUncoverin' debris, liftin' up the fallen arisen within'

To reach the yiddin

Even in Manhattan, exposed Menorah

Glowin' in the shadows of destructionTrailblazin' through affliction

Brushin' off the branches

Golden standin' strong, flames dancin'

Like a lion roarin', risin' out of nothin'

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
