You descend upon me like a rolling stone

Like black swan raging on for all that I know

You know it unnerves me when I lose control, and I'm

All out of options and I'm out of my head

Then I build my life around

Someone who I thought that I was

But it turns out

All the things I do to feel young

They only make me old

But you raise me

Like a baby

Like a fiery Phoenix bird

Oh, and you lift me up

Like Lazarus

And love me like death in reverse

You unearth me like a vein of gold

With the powers that drive up the flowers from the fold

You cast me, uncursed, unearth my body and my soul

Like fire from my ashes, like fire from my coals

And I build my life around

Someone who I thought that I was

But it turns out

All the things I do to feel young

They only make me old

But you raise me

Like a baby

Like a fiery Phoenix bird

Oh, and you lift me up

Like Lazarus

And love me like death

You love me like death

You love me like death in reverse

And all my life I've been

Fighting for a place I could drive

But it turns out

All the things I do to survive

They only make me old

But you raise me

Like a baby

Like a fiery Phoenix bird

Oh, and you lift me up

Like Lazarus

And love me like death

You love me like death

You love me like death in reverse
