about

The place to begin is always near

lyrics

Clear away the thorns from the foot of the ladder

The mocking tones, the fancy phones and chatter

This ladder stands not on a mountain's peak

But right here at the crossroads where I sleep

Ein zeh ki im beis Elokim

V'zeh shar hashamayim

Climbing up the ladder in my dream

Kol harotze la'alos l'Yirushalayim

Stay away, they warn, from the foot of the ladder

Don't you think this cage is so much better?

They dazzled me with flashing lights and spinning sounds

Knocked me out, off my feet and dragged me down

Climbing up the ladder in my dream

Kol harotze la'alos l'Yirushalayim

I looked for ways to climb far and wide

The Gate of Heaven I couldn't find

I turned back home and opened up the door

Standing there, the Gate of Heaven on the floor

Ein zeh ki im beis Elokim

V'zeh shar hashamayim

Climbing up the ladder in my dream

Kol harotze la'alos l'Yirushalayim

about

Bumy Goldson New York

Bumy Goldson's music is intellectually perceptive and emotionally powerful.
Too many people are caught up in the illusions of "what's going on" in the news but tend to miss that right in front of them is a beautiful world unfolding.
Bumy's music will stir in you a longing and a way to see the real world more dreamy than you can ever imagine.
