Lyrics

Lazarus

It's horrid to see you again

Now, that you're back from the dead

It's horrid to see you again

So bored of being you

It's horrid to see you again

Now, that you're back from the dead

It's horrid to see you again

So bored of being alive, alive, alive

It's horrid to see you again

Acting like you're on some kind of cross

It's horrid to see you again

An emotional retard

It's horrid to see you again

Unaware that I may not be lost

It's horrid to see you again

So bored of being alive, alive

Alive, alive, alive, alive, alive

It's horrid to see you again

Walking around with that egg on your face

It's horrid to see you again

So full of apathy

It's hard to see you again

Caught in a trap that you cannot escape

It's hard to see you again

So bored of being alive, alive

Alive, alive, alive, alive, alive
