    For the first time I hear Bob Dylan in Asaf's music.

    The video seemed to be about something else than his song----Like two different stories going at once. Baffling beauty.

    Babylon is a symbol of sin, wickedness, evil, the people who lived there were materialistic heathens. I take it as Asaf is singing about wanting to indulge himself in activities that might be considered sinful, without a care, just give in to all desires. "I know there's a night, at the edge of this light" - he longs for the darkness, not the light. "Rain your terror down on me, untame the blueness in these eyes" - he doesn't want to be naive and good anymore.
    The whole album "The study on falling" is about the process of falling out of love with someone, a relationship disintegrating.. And he's been in Babylon before "all the tunes I used to sing, let me try them on my lips again, you know I never miss a note" - he's good at being destructive, dark and wicked! 😁
    Wanting to be carefree and more animal-like, after trying for so long to do everything right and it still didn't work. I give up, now let me just exist and do whatever, let me be "evil".. maybe also to punish yourself...

    I was thinking the guitar playing sounded like Robert Cray

    He said in an interview that he did not believe in god
    He believes in science but that he he loves the poetic part of the Bible
    So this song has me baffled now lol

      Read my interpretation in my commen, maybe you agree with that one :) he’s not religious but uses biblical terms because of their mythological meaning

    • @user-ou9it2oh5u

      Yes he is brilliant and sometimes over my head but I love him!

    I love your interpretation though! That added a new dimension to the song for me

      He requires a bit of an open mind.. do you agree?
      Like you have to think when you listen ❤️✨

    So I’ve only seen this live..
    Now the video has me confused
    I thought the song was about a woman he should not be with
    Hmmmm

      It could be about many things. I think the beauty of music is, that it can mean different things to different people, and also at different times.
