Noam’s song 2

Traveling in the car
Terrorists shooting at us
I won’t ever forget
Entering the bomb shelter
And calling my dad
Hoping that he’s already up
There’s nowhere to run
I hear a blast
And I am covered in blood
I got lucky
And most of my body was saved
But my head is still there
 
It’s already been two weeks and a half that I haven’t slept
I won’t ever forget Lazer in the car filled with blood
I want to be free from this already, to feel something else
But my leg still has a bullet in it as a remembrance
Suddenly everyone feels sorry for me, I hate it
They come to hear stories, but really
I don’t want to talk about this anymore
But if you really want to hear what happened to me
 
I won’t ever forget that so was covered in dead bodies
To prevent the shrapnel from penetrating mine
I won’t ever forget the guy who prayed to god
And all of his blood that was blown onto my face
I won’t ever forget the burnt smell
Of people, and smoke that filled the entire room
I won’t forget I heard people cry out “the army is coming”
And then terrorists arrived in a truck
 
I open my eyes and realize I’m alive
I move the bodies of my friends off of me
A guy dying without his leg grabs me by my shoes
But if I take care of him who will take care of me
Life, and everything I wanted to be
How life passed through my brain in a couple of seconds
Full of questions, to die or live, between shots
I understood I had no choice, I have to try
 
I peek cautiously from the entrance of the shelter
Hoping to see one person that speaks hebrew
A car of Jews suddenly passes by
I run and beg for them to open the door for me
And shout at the driver to drive the fastest
I lay there in the back seat and hide
My leg is bleeding but I’m not dead yet
I still don’t realize that I managed to escape
 
“The blood fest where enemies came and murdered hundreds of revelers”
“One of the people who went to that festival was Noam Cohen”
“ He is a young man from Rishon L’tzion, Noam went into a horror movie within seconds, he was one of the cinematographers who came to record this event, his life was saved three times.”
 
Traveling in the car
Terrorists shooting at us
I won’t ever forget
Entering the bomb shelter
And calling my dad
Hoping that he’s already up
There’s nowhere to run
I hear a blast
And I am covered in blood
I got lucky
And most of my body was saved
But my head is still there
 
Maybe my body is saved
But a part of me died that day that ׳unknown’ became ‘in blessed memory’
Maybe I’m not that strong
Because when I see your pictures brother, I choke
Everything that happened, I won’t ever forget
But I won’t let those assholes win
At night I still have nightmares
But no one will take a smile off my face.
