~"we don't cry, my love. we bleed on paper."~


Verse 1:

The air was quiet around them

There was phlegm on the 

Ground

Hearts were aching

“Someone save him

“Please”


Verse 2:

They searched for Him

The One able heal their

Brother

(Hmm)

But He remained two days

For their faith

Testing


Bridge:

The atmosphere changed

At the stone-buried grave

They cried in rawness

They cried


Chorus 1:

“Where are You?

Where are You?

Why aren’t you here,

To save our brother?

How much longer?

How much longer?

How long do we need to wait

To witness a miracle?”


Verse 3:

Sleeping was he in that bed

Four days passed and 

Silence

A tear slipped her cheek

She collapsed on her

Knees

Before the grave


Bridge:

The atmosphere changed

At the stone-buried grave

They cried in the quiet

They cried


Chorus 2:

“If You were here

He would’ve survived

The suffering he endured

Would’ve faded away”
But Jesus, oh Jesus

He said, He said,

“Have faith,

He’ll rise again.”


Verse 4:

The night grew dark

The stars twinkling in the

Sky

Jesus’s heart was filled

With compassion for

Them


Verse 5:

The tears slipped down his cheeks

The first and final weep


Bridge:

The atmosphere changed

At the stone-buried grave

Jesus cried

Jesus cried


Chorus 3:

“Lazarus, walk free

To me”

They both stood, shocked

As a man strode from the grave

And Jesus bowed

Before His Father,

“Thank You for hearing Me”

And they all witnessed a miracle.
