שיר חדש [Shir Hadash] [English translation]

Simply for no reason i fight my common sense

i am deathly tired and can't fall asleep

i told you. i told you

happiness won't come to visit if we won't open the window

how torn i am and this is a waste

between momentary loves i want "cooked food"

i lied to you, i lied to myself

because of all this mess i forgot for a moment where i came from

now i am going to sleep alone in front of the sea

and discover within myself a side i didn't know before

How many questions does this raises in me

in life not everything is luck

within my walls what is happening to me?

i am sober and a bit confused

starting tomorrow i will begin a new song

already playing within me

And sometimes i don't understand what i am scared of

perhaps half the planet prefers that nothing should ever hurt

i forgave you, i forgave myself

all that was between us doesn't remain yours or mine

to build is difficult, to take apart easy

another crazy person wearing a mask of normalcy

i lied to you, i lied to myself

because of all this mess i forgot for a moment where i came from

now i am going to sleep alone in front of the sea

and discover within myself a side i didn't know before

How many questions does this raises in me

in life not everything is luck

within my walls what is happening to me?

i am sober and a bit confused

starting tomorrow i will begin a new song

already playing within me

Now i am standing strong in front of the world

on the cliffs of Beit Yanai1meeting eyes in the sunset

How many questions does this raises in me

in life not everything is luck

within my walls what is happening to me?

i am sober and a bit confused

starting tomorrow i will begin a new song

already playing within me
