lyrics

Birthday in New York
It's not as easy as you'd think
New York in June is like a mix
Of vanity and drinks
It's got me hoping
For a bright and shiny day
But brings the cold and heavy rain
To drive my mind away

With changes in the sky
Comes pressure in my eyes
Is it raining still? I really can't see
New York in June is dangerous
Just like the man who's far away
But still is inside of me
Both undress me with their eyes
But shut their mouths so they could be free

Lately my eyes have rested
On a road that is half shown
Without breaks or intermissions
I am pushed along the stones
The wind reveals
The nudity of my mistakes
And pets the gentle heavy line
Inside of which I ache

With changes in the sky
Comes pressure in my eyes
Is it raining still? I really can't see
New York in June is dangerous
Just like the man who's far away
But still is inside of me
Both undress me with their eyes
But shut their mouths so they could be free

How long will I ache 'till I bleed?

Birthday in New York
It's not as easy as you'd think
New York in June is like a mix
Of vanity and drinks
It's got me hoping
For a bright and shiny day
But brings the cold and heavy rain
To drive my mind away

about

The Scientist Tel Aviv, Israel

Not a musician at all, The Scientist is in fact .. a scientist. Although mostly interested in the genomic attributes of endangered animals, The Scientist could not battle the surge of music flowing through her fingers and disturbing the peace and quiet of her laboratory. Therefore, she released it into the airwaves in hopes that someday it will find its way back to her. ... more
