lyrics

dear lazarus
were you grateful
when he rolled the stone away
or had the stench of days
swallowed your chance to live again?
dear lazarus
was your sadness secrets
rotting on the vine
or had the merchant of time
swallowed your chance to live again?
oh dear lazarus
in your slumber you walked with seraphim
and kissed the sacred keepers
you swam in holy oceans
the scythe of demon reapers
now swings above your crown
the bondage wires wound
as the shroud is loosened
the blinding light of day
is harshest on your head
and now my heart is heavy
as i think of you
oh dear lazarus
