LAZARUS IS DEAD Lazarus arise! Ditch that coma and open up your eyes He fought his mind, scattering pockets of least resistance Could not unwind, removed himself from existence He failed the test, propped lifeless strapped into a chair No time to rest, still ageing man with no cares Lazarus arise! Ditch that coma and open up your eyes Lazarus arise! Ditch that coma and open up your eyes A stainless bed, pressure points object to skin Robot head, plugs in ears just to keep out the din Cathode ray man, his life defined by a sine curve Empty hands, several gestures to unlearn Lazarus arise! Ditch that coma and open up your eyes Lazarus arise! Ditch that coma and open up your eyes Charts are waiting Machines are waiting God is waiting But Lazarus is dead Charts are waiting Machines are waiting God is waiting But Lazarus is dead Hollow tubes, exchanging juices, eternal headache An empty room, just too real to be all fake Lazarus arise! Ditch that coma and open up your eyes Lazarus arise! Ditch that coma and open up your eyes

Hope Dies Last Had a feeling in my bones Abandon home, abandon home Let’s admit it wasn’t working Let it go, left right go Hope dies last of all Before you fall Remember this I gave my all, gave my all, gave my all, gave my all Take some pills you won’t remember Order of them Three or ten? Oh yeah, I don’t recall it That time ago, long time ago Hope dies last of all Before you fall Remember this I gave my all “I don't want your hope, I don't want you to be hopeful. I want you to panic, I want you to feel the fear I feel every day. And then I want you to act” Strayed from path, forgot your vow Saw your tools, they were down Deceit was long enough to suffer Let me go Should’ve let me go There’s a place I will be waiting Fires glow Abandon hope Hope dies last of all Before you fall Remember this I gave my all, gave my all, gave my all, gave my all, gave my all Gave my all, gave my all

They Shoot Horses So I remember Something before the war We’d weaken forces Never ask what for We’d walk the tightrope Sit on the fence We’d run the gauntlet With no defence I could sell you something for nothing And it would be okay I need to unsaddle the horses, They get shot today I could tell you a load of sweet nothings And it would be okay Just rest your eyes, my sweet child They shoot horses, don’t they? I remembered something About the plans we made We’d practice band but Never was parades Reciting Latin Decline in every tense Our family motto “Commit to excellence” I could sell you something for nothing And it would be okay I need to unsaddle the horses, They get shot today I could tell you a load of sweet nothings And it would be okay Just rest your eyes, my sweet child They shoot horses, don’t they? This time, I can’t, no way This time, I can’t, no more, no way This time, I can’t, no way, uh-huh This time, no more, no way This time, time, this time, no more, no way This time
