The Story of Lazarus
Awakening from Shadows: The Story of Lazarus Unveiled
Lyrics
And with a kiss upon the shoulder
Initiation or awakening marked by a symbolic kiss on the shoulder.
Withered scales fell from your eyes
Transformation and clarity, shedding illusions represented by scales falling from the eyes.
And nights that closed ever colder
Increasingly challenging and difficult times.
That your companions of loneliness terrorised
Close relationships or inner demons causing distress during lonely periods.
Were cracked by the light
Overcoming darkness or obstacles through illumination and insight.
You stumbled out into the morning
Emergence into a new phase or reality, leaving the darkness behind.
You felt the dew upon the ground
Connection with nature and the sensory experience of morning.
It never gave you any warning
Lack of forewarning for life's challenges and surprises.
It came upon you without a single sound
Unexpected events or changes occurring silently and swiftly.
Turned your heart inside out
A profound and transformative experience affecting one's core.
You roamed the alleys like a stranger
Feeling like an outsider, navigating life with uncertainty.
Clutching rags in your hands
Clutching onto remnants of the past or tangible symbols of struggle.
A shepherd searching for a manger
Seeking meaning or purpose, akin to a shepherd searching for a manger.
A child who reads words he cannot understand
A sense of innocence or naivety in trying to understand complex concepts.
The lame made to stand
An empowerment, overcoming limitations or obstacles.
And though the years die like embers
The passage of time and experiences fading away like dying embers.
And be not visited again
Irreversible changes that cannot be relived.
With every sunrise you'll remember
Every new day brings a reminder of past challenges and rebirth.
The tomb that opened, the light that flooded in
Recollection of a significant event, possibly a rebirth or awakening.
That breath upon your skin
A vivid memory or impact that lingers as a tangible sensation.
