There's a reckoning a-coming
and it burns beyond the grave
its lead inside my belly
cause my soul has lost its way
Oh, Lazarus
How did your debts get paid
Oh, Lazarus
Were you so afraidWhen the fires, when the fires have surrounded you
with the hounds of hell coming after you
I've got blood, I've got blood on my name
when the fires, when the fires
are consuming you
and your sacred stars won't be guiding you
I've got blood, I've got blood
blood on my nameNot a spell gonna be broken
with a potion or a priest
When you're cursed you're always hoping
that a prophet would be grieved
Oh, Lazarus
How did your debts get paid
Oh, Lazarus
Were you so afraidCan't you see I'm sorry
I will make it worth your while
Made a dead mans money
you can see it in my smile
Oh, Lazarus
How did your debts get paid
Oh, Lazarus
Were you so afraidWhen the fires, when the fires have surrounded you
and the whole wide world coming after you
I've got blood, I've got blood on my name
when the fires, when the fires are consuming you
and your sacred stars wont be guiding you
I've got blood, I've got blood
blood on my namemmm-mmm
it wont be long
til I'm dead and gone
it wont be long
til I'm dead and gonewatch the fires rise under my skin
down to the bone
scorching my soul
nowhere to run
nowhere to run
nowhere to runWhen the fires, when the fires have surrounded you
with the hounds of hell coming after you
I've got blood, I've got blood on my name
when the fires, when the fires are consuming you
and your sacred stars won't be guiding you
I've got blood, I've got blood on my nameWhen the fires, when the fires have surrounded you
and the whole wide world coming after you
I've got blood, I've got blood
blood on my name
