Tonight I raise the dead, I bring you back to me,
brush dirt out from your hair, and I will not feel scared.
Because I love you and you are home, and you came to me when I called.
I melted candle wax, I read our folded notes.
Now you smell like the trees, ancient arms surrounding me.
You speak pure latin now, your pretty teeth are falling out.
You’re fading into me. You speak my name so carefully.
And I love you and you are home, and you came to me when I called.
Our love raised the dead, but God took you again.
A lesson should be learned, but all I feel is hurt.
Because I loved you and you were home, and you came to me when I called.
Because I love you and you are home, and you came to me when I called.
