Moses (given name)

Moses or Moshe is a male given name, after the biblical figure Moses.

According to the Torah, the name "Moses" comes from the Hebrew verb, meaning "to pull/draw out" [of water], and the infant Moses was given this name by Pharaoh's daughter after rescuing him from the Nile (Exodus 2:10). Some scholars have suggested that the name was derived from the Egyptian word for "son" rather than from Hebrew.

    Crash

    by: Mesh

    See the vapours fading
    As they stare into the night
    Every time
    Its getting harder
    To be buttoned up so tight
    Don't do anything to us today
    (You're only flesh and bone, you'll really never know)
    There's nothing left to take away
    (You're only flesh and bone, you'll really never know)
    I know the crash is coming
    Cause I smell the fuel in the morning
    I hear the engines stop
    But I'll find my own way down
    I hear the sleeper's waking
    As they stare into the sky
    All our lives
    The rivets breaking
    As we struggle up so high
    Don't do anything to us today
    (You're only flesh and bone, you'll really never know)
    There's noone left
    Who wants to stay
    (You're only flesh and bone, you'll really never know)
    I know the crash is coming
    Cause I smell the fuel in the morning
    I hear the engines stop
    But I'll find my own way down
    I see the takers taking
    And we live it all again
    Every time a little closer
    To the truth without the pain
    Don't do anything to us today
    (You're only flesh and bone, you'll really never know)
    There's nothing left to play the game
    (You're only flesh and bone, you'll really never know)
    I know the crash is coming
    Cause I smell the fuel in the morning
    I hear the engines stop
    But I'll find my own way down
    (You'll really never know)
    I know the crash is coming
    Cause I smell the fuel in the morning
    I hear the engines stop
