Asaf Avidan - The Golden Calf Lyrics

BRAVO.....OD SRBIJE!!!

As you danced around the golden calf, your spinning gown

Showed all the hungry boys in town what they had missed

They thought that you had found the echoes of that holy sound

Which got it spat into the ground that you had kissed

Your soul was tearing in a thread, was dragged behind you as you fled

Into the shadows of the bed in which you hid



And as the whispers spread, their colours darkened to a red,

That stained all you ever said with what you did

And I met you one night

Through a trick of the light, a thousand lifetimes ago

And I held your face in my hands and I traced

Every line you never wanted to show

Cause I know

We are the children that never let go

We are the children that never let go



As they poured across the borders of your dress, they crossed

Into the layer of the frost around your name

And everyone of them was lost

Between the hammer and the cross

That you labelled and then tossed into the flame

You know, I never meant to try to teach you anything, but my commandments smashed
When I collided with your hips


And who was I to dare to love you or to interfere

With all the scars that you declared across your lips


And I met you one day

Through a crack in the pavement

A thousand silences old

I pulled your chest to my hands

And I pressed every crest that was covered in snow

Cause I know

We are the children that never let go

We are the children that never let go


I was forced to scavenge through the rotten crates and salvage

That was broken down and ravaged by the sea

And as we stepped outside

We saw the calf and then a tide of moonlight hid its golden hide

And it was me

Unglaublich Intensiv. Das ist Musik!

Masterpiece he deserves more sucess...

He does..! His poetry is cutting through through flesh

Je pleure d émotion dés que je l écoute merci asaf

As you dance around the golden calf
You're spinning down
Showed all the hungry boys in town
What they had missed
They thought that you have found
The echoes of that holy sound
Which got it spat in to the ground
That he had kissed
Your soul was tearing
And a threat was dragged behind you
As you fled into the shadows
Of the bed in which you hid
And as the whisper spread
The colour darkened to a red
That stained to all you ever said
With which you did
And I met you a night
Through a trick of a light
A thousand lifetimes ago
I held your face in my hands
And I traced every line
You never wanted to show
Because I know
We are the children that never let go
We are the children that never let go
As they poured a cross
The borders of your dress
They crossed into the layer
Of the frost around your name
And every one of them was lost
Between the hamer and the cross
That you labelled
And then tossed into the flame
You know I never ment to try
To teach antyhing
But my commandment smashed
When I collided with your hips
And who was I to dare to love you
War has bend to fear
With all the scars that you declare
Across your lips
And I met you one day
Through a crack in the pavement
A thousand silences old
I pulled your chest
To my hand and I pressed
Every cracks that was covered in snow
Because I know
We are the children that never let go
We are the children that never let go
We are the children that never let go
I was forced to scavenge
Through the rotten crates and scalvage
That was broken down
And rubbished by the sea
And as we stepped outside
We saw the coffin that are tied
Of moonlight hid its golden pile
And it was me

The fitness fanatics out there probably know the feeling of pushing yourself to the max in a workout.
