Songtexte: Matisyahu. Youth. Late Night In Zion.
We're the reflection of imperfection
We come from the infinite place of limitation
Rejoice in these days, make a correction
We're the completion
Lights out, down for the count and can't get up
Meanwhile the enemy screams the boy is stuck
And the legs of the king are dangling in a rut
Falling pieces, lost sparks, hearts cut
We're not alone in the madness
If we're here, then so are you
Deepest caverns underground
We've been taken for the truth
Scrape my knees, on the hurdles
Face down in the puddles
The only one who'll get us out of this mess
The one who put us here
I've got a spear driven through my ear
Can't you hear the sound, crystal clear
Pistols smashing chandeliers
Long for brooks of water like the deer
A man is just a man, filled with faults and weakness
Four A.M., Jerusalem, all alone and speechless
And nighttime, nobody's home, roam streets in darkness
I feel I'm just a man, flesh and bones, homeless
A man is just a man, filled with faults and weakness
Four A.M., Jerusalem, all alone and speechless
And nighttime, nobody's home, roam streets in darkness
Feel I'm just a man
Planting seeds, they won't sink in
I'm dried up, like the desert earth, how could these seeds give birth
Water me down, liquefy, I will not be cursed
From one into a million disperse
Wisdom reigns like water from the heavens to below
Crush my earth, seeds grow, garden starts to grow
You know you've got to rise, although you like to flow
You can't keep staring out the window
Earth, water, wind, fire
We stay low while getting higher
Spark igniter, fighting tired
Stay wired, enlighten loads
Fly alive, weep wail chant, cry, let out a sigh
Energized, give out my last dime, life shouldn't pass me by
Rise, to the occasion
Keep these hearts all blazin'
Build your life on a river of wax
Melt into space
We've been here since the beginning
Not going away, not going away
A man is just a man, filled with faults and weakness
Four A.M., Jerusalem, all alone and speechless
And nighttime, nobody's home, roam streets in darkness
I feel I'm just a man, flesh and bones, homeless
A man is just a man, filled with faults and weakness
Four A.M., Jerusalem, all alone and speechless
And nighttime, nobody's home, roam streets in darkness
Feel I'm just a man
We come from the infinite place of limitation
Rejoice in these days, make a correction
We're the completion
Lights out, down for the count and can't get up
Meanwhile the enemy screams the boy is stuck
And the legs of the king are dangling in a rut
Falling pieces, lost sparks, hearts cut
We're not alone in the madness
If we're here, then so are you
Deepest caverns underground
We've been taken for the truth
Scrape my knees, on the hurdles
Face down in the puddles
The only one who'll get us out of this mess
The one who put us here
I've got a spear driven through my ear
Can't you hear the sound, crystal clear
Pistols smashing chandeliers
Long for brooks of water like the deer
A man is just a man, filled with faults and weakness
Four A.M., Jerusalem, all alone and speechless
And nighttime, nobody's home, roam streets in darkness
I feel I'm just a man, flesh and bones, homeless
A man is just a man, filled with faults and weakness
Four A.M., Jerusalem, all alone and speechless
And nighttime, nobody's home, roam streets in darkness
Feel I'm just a man
Planting seeds, they won't sink in
I'm dried up, like the desert earth, how could these seeds give birth
Water me down, liquefy, I will not be cursed
From one into a million disperse

Crush my earth, seeds grow, garden starts to grow
You know you've got to rise, although you like to flow

And nighttime, nobody's home, roam streets in darkness
Feel I'm just a man
