Resurrexit

I had an image running through my head
Of turning down and cleaning up my hand
Before the wake, after the fall
Bet you thought you’d really seen it all
I swore I’d give it to the very end
But now I know it’s all I understand
I’m looking in and I can wait it out
Still, there’s this thing I can’t live without
Resurrect me — tattooed army!
This is it — our ceremony!
Inside these walls, we’re bound by ritual!
Gather here in sanctuary!
And you can call it anything you want
The good life I’ve been trading all for nought
All I need’s to get away from here
Turn my back on you for a thousand years
Your blood is mine and you’re in my blood
Birth to ashes, you made my life so good
And when the wind finally calls my name
You know I’m bound to welcome it all the same
I’ll take a vow and I’ll make it count
Something tells me time is running out
And if it’s true that I won’t survive
I’ll have no choice but to sing from the other side
I swore I’d give it to the very end
But now I know it’s all I really understand
I’m looking in and I can wait it out
Still, there’s this thing that I can’t live without
Your blood is mine and you’re in my blood
Birth to ashes, you made my life so good
Resurrect me
Resurrect me
Resurrect me
Resurrect
