Tel Aviv

[Verse 1]
Building overrun
Our hope is on the fire exit
Dead television
On every floor we all four went through

[Chorus 1]
You cry upon the dead, I-I pity all the undead
Foul scent, blood and limbs
I'll bear them long as they don't know I

[Verse 2]
City overrun
Our hope is on the nearest shoreline
All radio line
Static oh we know things are not fine

[Chorus 2]
You cry upon the dead, I-I pity all the undead
They still don't realize I got bit on second floor

I will not be a feral, (I will survive, I won't)
I will survive

[Verse 3]
All these blood, what a plague now we all rot
It's horror in Nora's eyes, 'bout time my dear realizes

[Chorus 3]
You cry upon the dead, I say might as well upon me
My mind gets fuzzy, hard to stand my feet getting lousy

[Verse 4]
I'm out, fall down headfirst
This fever is getting worse
I overheard John argues
"Left him before time is due"

[Chorus 5]
You cry upon the dead, I say right as well upon me
My tongue is static, hands are as cold as the Antarctic

[Bridge]
Inside me, my blood is boiling
Will I survive?
The colors I see start fading
Will I survive?

[Verse 5: Baskara & Haikal]
It's a shame, all this mess (Oh, mother time)
Tel Aviv now put to rest (Help me this time)
Got caught up inside this failed "System fuck fest both east and west"
You cry upon me, I want you to just shut the fuck up
(I cry upon me, please cry upon me)
I am the 10th man the machine puts men like me to pay
(I am the 10th man our nation puts men like me to pay)
John drags me all the way while my minds lost in space
(Oh drags me all the way, I am lost in space)
Noises ring in my ears, the girls are stricken with fear
(Noises in my ears which to hear unclear)
Sarah stands up points a gun at me, Nora snatches it then I plea
(My people here point their gun at me, I seek god to her it plea)
Honey shoot me, end this torture, set me free
(Mother shoot me, end this torture, set me free)

[Verse 6: Baskara]
She lacks the gut to gun me down, I won't survive
Go run away my darling, I won't survive

I won't survive
I won't survive
(Go run away my darling)
(Go run away my darling)
I won't survive
(Go run away my darling)
(Go run away my darling)
I won't survive
(Go run away my darling)
(Go run away my darling)

I won't survive
(Go run away my darling)
(Go run away my darling)
I won't survive
(Go run away my darling)
(Go run away my darling)
I won't survive
(Go run away my darling)
(Go run away my darling)
I won't survive

(I'll rot in my land)
(Go run away my darling)
I won't survive
(I'll die by your hand)
(Go run away my darling)
I won't survive
(Mark my grave with my bones)
(Go run away my darling)
I won't survive
(Mark my grave with these stones)
(Go run away my darling)
I won't survive

(I'll rot in my land)
I won't survive
(Go run away my darling)
(I'll die by your hand)
I won't survive
(Mark my grave with my bones)
(Go run away my darling)
You won't survive
(Mark my grave with these stones)
(Go run away my darling)
You won't survive

You won't survive
Black is my blood, my bones, my limbs, my dear
You won't survive
John's dead and Sarah's next, my darling
You won't survive
Dark is my heart, my intention, my veins, my love
You won't survive
Sarah's a corpse, go run away, no no no
You won't survive

[Spoken words]
In between the stories for the kids
The colours I see started fading
I was out, fell down headfirst
I opened my eyes
Back again in the middle of elsewhere
There she was
God almighty, standing upon me
She showed me possibilities, bad ones
I was mad, I stood up
Face to face
I asked her
"Why would you let this happen? Where were you whenever we need you?
Were they all your plan?
Am I your son? Or did you adopt me?
Where do you hide the voices of your step-children?
Why do I need to constantly run from my own people?
Why do you let me suffer throughout the years?"
I took two steps closer
Told her my fixed price
I'll still go back and forth in time
Those things I saw, they must not happen
Learn from the past
Learn from possible future
Learn that blood will never be the answer for any conflict
Learn that the only scapegoat is prejudice for people I don't understand
Learn that I don't need to understand everyone
Learn that it would be enough just respecting each other's shoes
Children need to remember that censorship doesn't solve
Friends need to remember that sugar coated message doesn't solve
Ghostfolks need to remember that it's okay to be one in a million
We need to remember that speaking up shouldn't have a price
I need to remember that I saw possible Multiverses in this fucked up world
No guns, no sword
No violent horde
No punishment for people who learn from the past
No mobs swearing to rape anyone who don't fast
No children restrained because differences and class
No religious sites burned down
No school of thoughts gunned down
No stepsons or favored daughters
Just humans
That's what I see
And I'm sorry
If the state got me
Put a lead in me
If God erased me
After I'm finished telling this story
Please pass this on
And repeat after me
I won't forget who I am
I won't forget yesterday
