Rock of Lazarus

The day is short, the night is long, your heart is ravenous They say a heart that eats alone, it chokes, it's dangerous But I have lost my appetite, it proved superfluous My blood, it bled the deepest red and then it turned to rust Life is short and death is long my thoughts are nebulous It seems I'm lost inside myself, well, that makes two of us I wish I had the words to say but words are treacherous My guts were spilled, my heart was stilled, but it was Lazarus Wake up, Rock of Lazarus! Wake and turn to heart Beat with all the blood and dirt From the start Your dreams are big, your feet are small, the union perilous You'll walk alone, I'm not your ride onto the precipice I'm occupied in finding shape, I'm not your therapist My blood has bled, just blow my head, it will be courteous My heart is small, your eyes are big, look how they stare at us You're still a cub, but I am old, I'm not anomalous I will grow old, then I'll grow more, then I will turn to dust But yet my heart beats like the start, for it is Lazarus Wake up! Rock of Lazarus Wake and turn to heart Beat with all the blood and dirt From the start, from the start Wake up, Rock of Lazarus! Wake and turn to heart Beat with all the blood and dirt From the start HOWL Old hearts rise again HOWL Old hearts rise again HOWL Old hearts rise again HOWL Old hearts rise again Cry till you dry And you die And they'll drag you again into light
