Lazarus Lyrics

I am Lazarus
Brought to life again
I am reborn
Wondering to what gain

Resurrected
But to the same life
I am plagued
Brought down by strife

I was unasked
To do this bidding
I wanted out
Are you kidding?

It's insane
What did I journey for?
My wish, not granted
In the same place as before

Break these wings
If this is flying
To transcend
I prefer dying

What does my savior get me?
Another wasted year
With the same soulless content
When will I leave from here?

And when my trial has ended
What will be my reward?
I know my soul screams of ache
so callous, my lord

They said forgiving God
And they said loving God
Why am I here in limbo?
Why don't I buy it all?

Why don't I beg for mercy
In what I'm sure's my end?
I can't go back one more time
These wounds they can not mend

Into a landscape infernal
How the fire scourges
The searing flesh withdrawing from my bones

You are a cruel lord
To punish nonbelievers
All glory's yours and I'm a just a filthy
Sinner!
