The Well And The Lighthouse

I'm serving time, all for a crime I did commit
You want the truth? You know I'd do it all again
Left for dead, heaven is only in my head
I heard a voice calling from down inside a well
"See that silver shine?" She said to come claim what was mine
So down I fell down into the water black
My prison cell only the moon was shining back

If I seem lost, well, I weighted the cost
And chose my crime, now it's mine, all mine

I heard the voice calling from just outside the well
She said, "You fool, now that you know your end is near
You always fall for what you desire or what you fear"

Resurrected, living in a lighthouse
If we leave, them ships are gonna wreck
Resurrected, living in a lighthouse
The lions and the lambs ain't sleeping yet
Resurrected, living in a lighthouse
Can you see the funny side? Them ships are gonna wreck
Resurrected, living in a lighthouse
The lions and the lambs ain't sleeping yet
The lions and the lambs ain't sleeping yet
The lions and the lambs ain't sleeping yet
