Jon Foreman - Resurrect Me lyrics

rate me

Verse 1

It takes a long time to kill a man

Fifty-five years at least

Until he breaks down

Starts to look underground

To go off, and get him some peace

I want to die a lot quicker then that

If that’s my only way out

I’ve been counting up the cost

Getting up on that cross

I want to know what this is all about

Chorus 1

Father Time steals our days like a thief

There’s no price that I wouldn’t pay to get some relief

I’ve become the empty shell

Of a man I don’t like so well

I am a living, breathing hell

Come on and resurrect me

Verse 2

I tried to drown the pain with a friend of mine

It didn’t seem to help

She’s got a pretty face with her wedding lace

But I’m still waking up with myself

I know what it means to choke it down

Down until your legs get weak

I know what it’s like on a Saturday night

To be alone in a crowded street

Chorus 2

Father Time steals our days like a thief

There's no price that I haven't paid to get some relief

I've become the shell of a man

I can't begin to even understand

I've forgotten who I am

Come on and resurrect me

Bridge

Resurrect me

Come on and resurrect me
