I've Been a Mess

Lazarus wasnt grateful for his second wind
For another chance, watch his chances fade
Like the dawn and leave
I can barely tell you
Just how pale I get without you

'Cause Ive been a mess since youve been gone
Ive been a mess since youve been gone

What were the first words that the crowd heard him speak
I bet he was cursing at the sky
I bet he wasnt, wasn't turning no other cheek
And was there still hope and desire, hope and desire
Left in his heart for the last word, for the last word in love

'Cause Ive been a mess since youve been gone
Ive been a mess since youve been gone

Your beauty is just a slap in the face
Thats gonna bring me back to life
Back to another sky thats blue
Its gonna turn me into another
Great American zombie so hungry, so hungry for you

Well, Ive been a mess since youve been gone
Ive been a mess since youve been gone
Ive been a mess since youve been gone
Yeah, I've, Ive been a mess since youve been gone
