Daughter of Zion once precious princess 
Left hers father house 
To walk streets that never rest 
Maybe they'll hear me in metropolis 
So I'm sending an SOS 
Fighting with her ta 
She wants out of this mess 
And those big city lights 
Might brighten up the darkness 
You know that I'm tired and you know that I'm stressed 
You can't stop me and you can't stop this 
You could call the police try to make an arrest 
Today is the day that I repossess 
Leaving on the first bus that I can get 
Now its rings around eyes sopping wet from rain droplets 
Window shopping for some solace 
No address and penniless 
That's the price you pay for running away from the stress 
Feeling the pain like dance by the DJ 
Reminds me of a time when things were ok 
Frightened by her own shadow 
Now she wants to go home 
Many names for one G-d 
Trotting on, through the facade 
You were all my children 
Got a dig for that feeling 
Love will break through concealment 
Strip away the serpent's skin 
We came to win 
Dispatch the troops 
Send the captain 
My gem is held captive in the dungeon 
Don't come back till you end the mission 
If it takes a long time 
Don't lose the vision 
If you're stuck 
Check the blueprint 
Look within 
Reflection 
Got to find the rhythm 
Won't you please return child 
Where you been 
She says I can't come home because he won't let me in 
And besides we don't need no more friction 
Uses to look so nice, how'd you get so thin? 
With a heart like ice, it's a heart of sin 
Skin white like a ghost with a pale complexion 
Pray to g-d for the dead we need resurrection 
Don't you know wherever you go thick and thin 
You are still my children 
Since you've been gone my soul's been hearting 
Wondering through this world 
We are just boys and girls 
Many names for one G-d 
Trotting on, through the facade
