Lyrics:

The day is short, the night is long, your heart is ravenous
They say a heart that eats alone, it chokes, it's dangerous
But I have lost my appetite, it proved superfluous
My blood, it bled the deepest red and then it turned to rust

Life is short and death is long my thoughts are nebulous
It seems I’m lost inside myself, well that makes two of us
I wish I had the words to say, but words are treacherous
My guts were spilled my, my ego stilled, but it was Lazarus

Wake up! Rock of Lazarus
Wake and turn to heart
Beat with all the blood and dirt
From the start
From the start

Your dreams are big your feet are small, the union perilous
You’ll walk alone I’m not your ride onto the precipice
I’m occupied in finding shape, I’m not your therapist
My blood has bled, just blow my head, it will be courteous
My heart is small your eyes are big, look how they stare at us
You’re still a cub, but I am old - I’m not anomalous
I will grow then I’ll grow more then I will turn to dust
But yet my heart beats like the start for it is Lazarus

Wake up! Rock of Lazarus
Wake and turn to heart
Beat with all the blood and dirt
From the start
From the start
Wake up! Rock of Lazarus
Wake and turn to heart
Beat with all the blood and dirt
From the start
From the start

Howl, old hearts rise again
Howl, old hearts rise again
Howl, old hearts rise again
Howl, old hearts rise again
Cry 'till you dry and you die
And they'll drag you again into light
Cry 'till you dry and you die
And they'll drag you again into light

[AmSha-me]

I can't find the words to describe how vulnerable your voice makes me feel. You have an enormous talent.

[Tatiana_Artist_blog]

Гений. Он настолько талантлив, иногда я просто плачу от непостижимости этой лёгкости, уникального сочетания драмы, артистизма, самопоглощенности и устремлённости в глубину души, в которой рождается так естественно льющееся божественное уникальное самовыражение.

Ren posted your video on his YouTube community page so you may notice some new "faces" here. He likes to share talented artists with us. I love what I am hearing!

[CanaldoPortador]

I always had in my mind Rock of Lazarus was something of a mysterious noir narrative, fit for a theater play to make you cry rivers in black and white with a bodiless narration.

Seeing reimagined to something that feels more like an actual lamenting conversation where everything is already revealed and it kinda drives the main character mad would be my perfect completion of this imaginary play of mine.

Whether it was intentional or not, to put such a vivid image into someone's head is certainly something to state the quality of the music. Studio version will always be one of my favorite, most perfect songs ever (alongside 900 Days and quite a few more of yours which I listen to ever so often) but I'll be damned if I don't say this version isn't as well perfect! You got a fan in me, Asaf! Love from Brazil
