The High Windows - Will You Hear My Voice



Like the rest of the country, I was stunned and saddened to hear about Rona Ramon's death at 54 after battling pancreatic cancer. I'll never forget the day of the Columbia disaster when Ilan Ramon, our first astronaut, died together with the rest of the crew upon reentering Earth's atmosphere. Six years later another tragedy struck when pilot Asaf Ramon, Ilan and Rona's eldest son, died in a training flight accident. Following the tragedies, Rona worked in grief and coping counseling and served as founding CEO of the non-profit Ramon foundation for youth academic excellence and social leadership through science and technology. Learn more about her story in her own words here.

Will you hear my voice
so far away from me
Will you hear my voice
wherever you are

A strong voice
praying silently
over time
Sending a blessing

This country is big
and has many roads
We meet for a moment
and separate forever
A man tries,
but his legs fail
He will never find
what he has lost

My final days
are very close
Near is the day
of goodbye tears
I will wait for you
until my life will end
Like Rachel waited for her lover

Noga Shalev and the Voodoo Kids - Get Out



Yessss.

I want to get out of this city
Something big awaits me
Out of the box

To breath the air
To let my hair down and forget
Everything that happened

And sometimes a good conversation
Can fix everything
Delusions of fear and pride
The great eagle

I want to organize the rooms
And find out
What is left

And sometimes a chance meeting
Can move everything
Faith, knowledge, and lust
The great bridge

What's the point
If your fear
Closes in on everything and doesn't
Let you come in
It's not too late to get out
You'll find yourself
Standing in a great light
Swallowing everything

I want to get out already
I want to get out already

Billy And The Firm - Now Is The Time



So good!

In my dream, I open my eyes
I kiss the present, this fog feeling stream
You know it's alright to sometimes fall

Now is the time
Now is the time

Death in small doses, come strength my soul
Feel the gravel close to your bones
The colors are hidden in what we destroy

Now is the time
Now is the time
Now is the time
Now!

To lose what we can't have
Swallow our pride
Lose what we can't find
Fall into the tide

Days passing by
Time is a dream
Sick is the secret-secrets kept in
This land is full with seeds of hate
My heart is empty
My eyes are wet

His rope has sent me to this dead end
And here I find my way instead
Yes here I find my way instead

Now is the time
Now is the time
Now is the time
Now is the time
Now is the time
Now is the time
Now is the time
Now is the time
Now!

To lose what we can't hide
Swallow our pride
Lose what we can't find
Fall into the tide

To lose what you can't hide
Swallow your pride
Lose what you can't find
Fall into the tide
