Daniel Popel - Shells On The Beach (Music Video)

On October 7th 2023 my country was attacked by a vicious terrorist group, after a few days of shock and sadness I started to write this song. I went outside my comfort zone and made something less heavy and less progy (Although it is still probably the only Israeli memorial song in 9/4 ;) ) this song came out very different from what I usually do but I really like the way it came out and I hope you will too.
This is the first single out of my upcoming second album "A New Experience" which will be released one day in 2024 (Hopefully)

anyway here are the lyrics:
There's a shell in the waves
That was caught in her hands
Little girl on the beach
With a smile that never fades
But this shell has a tragic story

She took the shell
And gave it to her mom
The mom gasped
Then she laughed
Then she cried all night long
Well you see this shell has a tragic story

In the distant oasis of time
There used to be blood on the sand
Horrible violent deaths
Caused by a barbaric wrath

But we always survive
And we will rise again
One day this day
Will be a distant memory
A little girl will find a relic on the beach
Of the heroes who stood for us when we were weak
That day will come
But right now
We made an ocean of tears

The next day momy told
Her about what was done
Back when I was a girl
There was a war in the shore
Father locked the door
"Stay inside, I'll return"

I could hear all the noise
That I'll never forget
Lost all hope
Lost my friends
But somehow I remained
And the door stayed locked
But he never returned

In the distant oasis of time
We lost the first fight in the front
But in the battle of hope
We always win and we shine

But we always survive
And we will rise again
One day this day
Will be a distant memory
A little girl will find a relic on the beach
Of the heroes who stood for us when we were weak
That day will come
But right now
We made an ocean of tears
