עושה לי עיניים [Osa li Einaim] [English translation]

For some time now I stand alone

On the starting line of a race that doesn't start,

I'm scared to take a step,

Who shall I be by the end of the road?

Speaking of all that moves in me,

All about what's keeping me on hand,

I've marked it all with my own boundaries,

There's no more room and no air.

No I don't want to fall,

It's just that girl that I don't know, that's giving me eyes,

She's yet to see it all,

She threatens now that she'll jump from the ship into the water.

For some time now I close my eyes,

All that I feared to see on me,

Perhaps I'll find wings inside me,

To lean my back, trust myself.

So yes, jump into the water,

Learn about myself little by little,

And if within, there's some kind of arm wrestling,

Only the sound of a heartbeat.

No I don't want to fall,

It's just that girl that I don't know, that's giving me eyes,

She's yet to see it all,

She threatens now that she'll jump from the ship into the water.

No I don't want to go,

It's just that little girl that shrugs her shoulders,

She only barks she doesn't bite now,

She's just used to receive applause.
