Lazarus

He bears a weight of great love upon his shoulder
Wears the scars of our love across his chest
Hides the shadows of love lost in his heartbeat,
In his footsteps
And I will bear his weight upon my shoulders
Operate the scars he's caused me 'cross my breast
Yeah the love I'm losin' him
The flutter of his heartbeat in my footsteps
Build him a coffin with a door on two sides
Build him a coffin with two doors when he dies
Build him a coffin which could open two ways
'Cause the world is round and he might come back again
And though I had known when the rag and bone lines come together
It's not for who his bell tolls
Because I tell it tolls for you
All the photographs that could also turn to ashes
Just like me and you
And those keepsakes that I
Keep safe beneath my pillow
And the memories we are told
Will keep us safe
Do not mesh well with the flesh and blood on my body
Cannot fill the hole he makes
Build him a coffin with a door on two sides
Build him a coffin with two doors when he dies
Build him a coffin which could open two ways
'Cause the world is round and he might come back again
Whoah oh oh oh oh oh oh oh-oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh (x3)
Forgive him his sins and return him (x4)
Make him Lazarus
Name him Lazarus (x4)
