My Tunnels Are Long and Dark These Days Songtext
von Asaf Avidan

You, my friend
have nothing to fear, my friend
You have nothing to fear, my friend
except for love

We are moles, my friend
We are just moles, my friend
Blind against the dark
that′s where we belong

The hungry crocodiles are dancing in the light
but what's up there besides the darkness of the night?


Forget them, friend
You′re better here, my friend
Where the tunnels never end
To love is to pretend

Don't try to love yourself again
That is the worst kind of pain
We're not those kinds of freaks, amen!
We′re a different sort of breed of men

Up there, they′re drinking down the day
They mix it with their Chardonnay
They try to keep the dark at bay
Down here the darkness stays

The hungry crocodiles are dancing in the light
but what's up there besides the darkness of the night?
