Gaza is Calling
Which drug did you take to look at me that way?
Don't take it again, but if you do, give me part of your day
I still wear the ring you brought me
It leaves a shadow on my finger
Hit a skinhead with it last winter
And you would be proud of me
I'm not on my knees anymore
I can't really feel the floor
Let's go up north, though you have no will to
You wanna find the people who want to kill you
There's a place in your heart that I can't get into
And Gaza is calling
It's been years since you've been back
You can't keep what's in your hands
And Gaza is calling
Every time I say your name
There's a wall that's in the way
And we grew up on a street where every war meets
All our living rooms were aflame
But you led the way, how to hold it all and take the day
You wear that scarf like it's a vein
Always pack your mother's plates
You won't let anything else escape
And I can't write you a letter
You don't know how to read
You won't listen either
So, when can I tell you how I feel?
How I feel
And Gaza is calling
It's been years since you been back
You can't keep what's in your hands
And Gaza is calling
Every time I say your name
There's a war that's in the way
إسمك على راسي
كان في دمي
كان في قلبي
إسمك على راسي
كان في دمي
كان في قلبي
في سجودي يا خليني يا حبيبي
إسمك على راسي
كان في دمي
كان في قلبي
في سجودي يا خليني يا حبيبي
Don't take it again, but if you do, give me part of your day
I still wear the ring you brought me
It leaves a shadow on my finger
Hit a skinhead with it last winter
And you would be proud of me
I'm not on my knees anymore
I can't really feel the floor
Let's go up north, though you have no will to
You wanna find the people who want to kill you
There's a place in your heart that I can't get into
And Gaza is calling
It's been years since you've been back
You can't keep what's in your hands
And Gaza is calling
Every time I say your name
There's a wall that's in the way
And we grew up on a street where every war meets
All our living rooms were aflame
But you led the way, how to hold it all and take the day
You wear that scarf like it's a vein
Always pack your mother's plates
You won't let anything else escape
And I can't write you a letter
You don't know how to read
You won't listen either
So, when can I tell you how I feel?
How I feel
And Gaza is calling
It's been years since you been back
You can't keep what's in your hands
And Gaza is calling
Every time I say your name
There's a war that's in the way
إسمك على راسي
كان في دمي
كان في قلبي
إسمك على راسي
كان في دمي
كان في قلبي
في سجودي يا خليني يا حبيبي
إسمك على راسي
كان في دمي
كان في قلبي
في سجودي يا خليني يا حبيبي
