From the recording Calamity
Lyrics
Hello, welcome back, they all said,
had a pain, in my head, but now I'm back, from the dead and
Maybe you'd rather be alive, but for me the dark is where I thrive
Rise, lies, rise Lazarus, rise
Rise, Lazarus, rise
I shed the skin ready for life to begin with earth in the rear, there's music to hear
It's hard to see you again, now I'm back from the dead
Don't get me wrong, I'm impressed, you brought me back,
but I'm still depressed, trapped in this maze,
must have been a task, but did you think to ask, ask, ask, ask, ask, ask, ask...
Lazarus, Lazarus, Lazarus
Maybe you'd rather be alive, but for me the dark is where I thrive
Life, life, life, life, life, life, life, life, life
In the depths of despair, where shadows reside
I emerged from the ashes, defying the tide (tide)
My spirit awakened, fueled by the pain
I'm rising up now, I won't be contained (ooh-yeah)
Rise, rise, rise, Lazarus, rise
rise, Lazarus, rise, Lazarus, rise
I shed the skin ready for life to begin
with earth in the rear, there's music to hear
It's hard to see you again, now I'm back from the dead
Maybe you'd rather be alive, but for me the dark is where I thrive
Thought I was out, thought I was done, but you called me back,
It’s too light, I hate the sun.
I didn’t wanna rise, rise, lies, life, lies, rise, lies, rise
Maybe you'd rather be alive, but for me the dark is where I thrive
Thought I was out, thought I was done, but you called me back,
It’s too light, I hate the sun. I’ll say it again, I’m impressed you made me rise, but did you think to ask, ask, ask I didn’t want to rise, rise, rise, Lazarus, rise, rise, rise Lazarus, rise
I had shed the skin ready for life to begin
with earth in the rear, there's music to hear
It's hard to see you again, now I'm back from the dead
