Lazarus

歌詞

Now that he's gone Now the world has moved on Since he called my name nothing's the same As my sisters cried he said, "Lazarus rise" To love and anoint or just prove a point I'm the one that he saved I'm the one that he raised From the dark quiet sleep from the peace of the grave I'm the one who owes much but that no one will touch Mothers see me and cry Dogs bare teeth as I walk by I don't see a veil between heaven and hell The truth is there's nothing but warm light and singing But here in between a voice haunts my dreams Martha does what she can, but won't look at my hands I'm the one that he saved I'm the one that he raised From the dark quiet sleep from the peace of the grave I'm the one who owes much but that no one will touch Mothers see me and cry Dogs bare teeth as I walk by I love the cool mornings, I love a hot meal The pulse of the street, night, jasmine and clean sheets I can't sleep or rest I feel lost and hard pressed I wander these rooms still looking for you Now I ought to be grateful to drink from the grail But I don't belong either side of this veil I look down at my hands that I clasp in my lap When he left this world I thought he'd take me back
