Lazarus (feat. Colonel Green)

Lazarus and Lincoln sitting on the couch
Talking about the hard times they had way down south
Eyes fixed on the tv watching Elvis Presley sing
And staring at the flat screen where the light comes in

My boy doesn't speak just yet he coos or sleeps or cries
All depends on what he sees when he opens up his eyes
And I don't know what he's thinking or if he's thinking when
he's staring out the window where the light comes in

Where'd you get to Jonah 'bout a week back Saturday
You had pupils big as shadows of the fish beneath the waves
Did you finish what you started did you end where you begin
Were you staring out the window where light comes in

Almost imperceptible the spaces in between
Where I ended up- where I almost might have been
But the undertow embraced me when I was too tired to swim
And left me squint eyed hunting where the light comes in

If I pin my heart in a box of gold with a shiny silver pin
Would you open it up once, or time and time again
Would you peak in just a little would you open wide the brim
Would you show it all the places where the light comes in
