lyrics

Israel youve left me a mark
and it rest on my forehead like dust on a spark
I still see clouds in the clearest of nights
but when you settle in your the truest of northern lights

Jerusalem, I miss you now, i miss you now
and the way we danced, so lost in the crowd

so take my hand, or let my heart go
im not gonna leave you like lovers before
dont you remember , what I said that night
I cant stand to be with you once in a while

"take me down to the medic" you ask
And carry me close for to weave through the stacks
I cant see your pain til it weakens your heel
In this city so fake, your'e the sapphire so delicately real.

Hard to pick a favourite this is my favourite work by Noah Gundersen. If I was forced to choose two it would probably be a toss up between Middle of June & Oh death. The whole EP is excellent though. Gazing@Orion
