»KAYAM is the musical duo of siblings Kim and Mike Rauss, playing what they affectionately label Falafel Pop: a fusion of the genres they enjoy, a near obsession for chickpeas and much love.

On the banks of the river
In the dark of the night
Cold winds of winter
Echo in flight

‍

The places you‘ll go
The faces you‘ll know

‍

An endless mind, an endless horizon
The night skies glowing slowly with the first light
Smoke in the sky, a prayer was still alive

‍

And the moon is shining
Shining so bright
My thoughts go silent
I listen to the night

Can you feel me now
Can you hear me now

‍

Yeah it’s an endless dream
And it’s going round and round

‍

But I got this beat to lay down on
You got to dig it to get down on it

‍

And I know I’m gonna see the river
I’m not gonna hide, I’m not gonna hide
Yeah I know I’m gonna see the river
Just got to decide, just got to decide
Yeah I know I’m gonna be the river
I’m not gonna hide, I’m not gonna hide

‍

So let’s jump in and swim towards the light

‍

I’m gonna lay me down
Shake down in Byron town

‍

ואת הנהר אני יודע שאראה בקרוב
זה עוד לא הסוף

In the darkest night, rolling clouds below the sky
Let alone, let go, will you ever let me go

‍

Behind hills of gold, behind the feelings never told
Let alone, let go, will you ever let me go

‍

Watching as we fall at midnight
Watching as we fall through light

‍

Now I can say, I know it‘s right to walk alone
I can no longer fight for something that’s out of sight

‍

The withering sound of my sleep’s got my mind travelling too deep
It comes it goes, steadily it flows, it knows, it shows
All from which you wanted to grow

‍

And then the figures slip through the door in features that I adore
In colours of reds and blues and all of your different hues
And tell me darling

‍

Is there anything I could do, but to walk on, figure my truth
Heal all the pain that we‘ve both been through
The colours remain and it‘s all I can see,
Is this the way it was meant to be

And oh, we‘re falling down
And I, I‘m losing my ground
I wish I could find
Peace in my mind
The way seems long
But feels so strong

‍

Climbing the mountain
Crawling and dancing
And rivers behind us
Valleys surround us
And oceans beneath us
Mountains surround our way

‍

I know we
Can still grow
And will you
Let it show
In the valleys of rocks and stone
Along the rivers, miles from home

Even though I may find the answers to all that’s untold
Stories in my mind keep me questioning my life

‍

And all you need is time, only you know best what your soul is seeking
One day you will arrive and you‘ll know there‘s a place you can call your own

‍

I will, I will, I will

‍

I will step up a little bit further, move up a little bit higher
With each day I move to my ground
Step up a little further, move up a little bit higher
Settle in what I’ve found

‍

Even though I might be able to find the answers to all that’s untold
Stories in my mind keep me from sleeping well tonight

אל המעיין
מעבר לים
מעבר לזמן
אל צוקי מדבר
לא נשאר דבר
השקט נבחר
שם אמצא אותי
ושוב אחזור
אמצא מקום ללא שיגעון
אני כאן סובלני
ומתבונן בי
אני כאן סבלני
ומתבונן עם כל כולי

‍

To the spring
Beyond the ocean
Beyond time
To desert cliffs
Nothing remains
The silence is chosen
There I will find myself
And return again
I’ll find a place without insanity
I am patient here
And observe my self
I am patient here
And observe my whole self

‍

Walking nowhere
My restless thoughts disappear
From sand to snow :)
From high to low

‍

And overhead eagles roam
Across the sky going home
And ancient song comes to my ear
A distant dream soon to appear

‍

Windows stand open
Doors have been broken
Where do they want to go
To lakes and woods and snow

I had to leave, I couldn’t stay no more
As the mist, it joined us to the shore

‍

As I’m crossing the ocean, I see that I’m almost there
And I can’t look back, I’ll try I wont compare

‍

‘Cause I know, I know we always thought
And you know, you know we always fought
For this time to last
But it had to pass
And now the sound begins
And its all within

‍

Papa words you’ve said have gone so deep
Caught up in these tides, I cannot sleep
Clouds covering the sky
I see you, your tearless cry
I open my eyes, nobody is home
