Track 10 of the album "While You Were Sleeping"
Music and lyrics by Eliad Friedman-Green

lyrics

I bury my arms
In the sands of my mind
In a whirlpool of lies
Covering both my eyes.
I keep saying it’s time
But then, what is my crime?

(don’t set these eyes on me.)

I bury my life in some hidden drawer
Or in a hole in the sand
Covering both my hands.
And i sing and i stare, I wish i wouldn’t dare
To besiege my own home
Meanwhile feeling so torn
But in time i cry out
Where this well finally dries
I will bury my arms in the sands of my life
And i’ll die.

(don’t set these eyes on me
Because i’m flailing in their gaze
Don’t throw your fires at me
Because i’m just a mouse in the maze.
And truthfully darling, i’ll be good to you
In this world today, with all my might)

I’ll die of my crimes, I’ll fish my ideas
From the drawer in my mind
Covering both my eyes
In the sands of my lies.

I’ll sing my demise from the depth of my lungs
From this well i had stung
From the life that was before
The ideas from the drawer
I won’t set it on fire
Nor wish for it to catch
I will bury my hands
In the sands of my lies
I will break my own trust
I will pay for my crimes
And i’ll die. I will die.
