Wrestling Jacob



Wrestling Jacob

My black soul, dark as the metal crash
Early tide carries me out this Tammuz night thrash
All our boats rise, flooded with tears for our children
Do not mistake this for despair, determination in this cauldron

Great is the distance in this endurance test
Battling wasps with stings of justice kill the pests
Enable the sword of Gideon once more to allay
Protected by the dome, stops the poison without delay

Traveling down this lonely well known path of fire
Demons filled with hate, berserk with evil desire
Wide open our eyes to shield our young from this horror
Less is more, so pinpoint the strikes every hour

Quiet is the Land, only the sound of metal strings expands
Play my emotions, sickening reality dissipates through my hands
Pain is the result when the fever has passed, stiff fingers pried
Understand the abstract to convert reality, to reveal who lied
