Jesus

Jesus help me

I'm alone in this world

And a fucked up world it is too

Tell me

Tell me the story

The one about eternity

And the way it's all gonna be

Wake up

Wake up dead man

Wake up

Wake up dead man



Jesus

I'm waiting here boss

I know you're looking out for us

But maybe your hands aren't free

Your Father

He made the world in seven

He's in charge of heaven

Will you put a word in for me



Wake up

Wake up dead man

Wake up

Wake up dead man



Listen to your words

They'll tell you what to do

Listen over the rhythm that's confusing you

Listen to the reed in the saxophone

Listen over the hum of the radio

Listen over the sounds of blades in rotation

Listen through the traffic and circulation

Listen as hope and peace try to rhyme

Listen over marching bands playing out their time



Wake up

Wake up dead man

Wake up

Wake up dead man



Jesus

Were you just around the corner?

Did you think to try and warn her?

Or are you working on something new?

If there's and order

In all of this disorder

Is it like a tape recorder?

Can we rewind it just once more



Wake up

Wake up dead man

Wake up

Wake up dead man
