I called upon the heavens

To bring him back to me

He was my religion

Oh Lord, won't you cut me a deal?

It's a fearful matter

To love what death can touch

So long since I've seen his eyes

Oh Lord, it hurts so much

How long before you come back

To lay my tears to rest?

How long before you're rising

From the dead?

Hollow loom these empty halls

I'm haunted by your ghost

It's a cruel game to talk to the dead

But what hurts me the most?

It's been so long

He never came back

He took my heart to his grave

How long before he's rising

From the dead?

How long before you come back

To lay my tears to rest?

How long before you come back?

How long?

Don't leave me, no

How long before you come back

To lay my tears to rest?

How long before you're rising

From the dead?

I need absolution, a divine solution
