Ode To My Thalamus Lyrics - Singles - Asaf Avidan

The clouds are gathering in the sky above 

I know this one's gonna hurt my love 

Birds are shouting through the Mangrove trees 

They know the difference between a storm and breeze 

I too have felt this once before 

I hear that pounding and it's at my door 

Outside it's boiling, but the water is cold 

All signs point to that I'm getting old 

The waves are rising and I take that dive 

To hold a breath is not to be alive 

I felt it then, I feel it now 

I know its coming but I don't know how 

It's taking us apart, this Helicase of love 

We're nothing but post-modern art, what were we thinking of 

This is how it has to be - This is how it has to be 

I'm constructing but I shouldn't be 

My blood is boiling and the callus is hot 

My veins are twisting in a sailor's knot 

My Thalamus is growing down into my tongue 

And all I taste is pain in every kiss and song 

I know this story, and I know it well 

The cracks are showing in my pearly shell 

Outside I'm shaking and I feel them chills 

There go both of my Achilles Heels 

I fall down naked waiting for the storm 

My arms are open, waiting to transform 

The birds go flying, I hear them cry 

I know it's coming but I don't know why 

It's taking us apart, this Helicase of love 

We're nothing but post-modern art, what were we thinking of 

This is how it has to be, This is how it has to be 

This is how it has to be, This is how it has to be 

This is how it has to be, This is how it has to be
