Lazarus wasn’t grateful for his second wind For another chance watch his chances fade like the dawn and leave I can barely tell you just how pale I get Without you I’ve been a mess since you’ve been gone What were the first words that crowd heard him speak I bet he was cursing at the sky I bet he wasn’t turning no other cheek And was there still hope and desire left in his heart For the last word in love I’ve been a mess since you’ve been gone Your beauty is just a slap in the face That’s gonna bring me back to life Back to another sky that’s blue It’s gonna turn me into another great American zombie So hungry for you I’ve been a mess since you’ve been gone
