In this hauntingly melodic track, Porcupine Tree delves into themes of escape and transcendence. The lyrics evoke a journey from a bleak, oppressive reality to a mystical valley symbolizing peace and release. The repeated invitation to follow "down to the valley below" suggests a call towards introspection or liberation from life's burdens. The reference to "moonlight bleeding from out of your soul" might imply that even in darkness, there is still a part of oneself that can shine through—suggesting hope and resilience. The character of Lazarus further enriches this narrative by symbolizing rebirth or awakening from desolation. #PorcupineTree #Lazarus #Transcendence
Lazarus
Lyrics
As the cheerless towns pass my window
I can see a washed out moon through the fog
And then a voice inside my head breaks the analogue
And says
"Follow me down to the valley below
You know
Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul"
I survived against the will of my twisted folk
But in the deafness of my world the silence broke
And said
"Follow me down to the valley below
You know
Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul
Follow me down to the valley below
You know
Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul"
My David don't you worry
This cold world is not for you
So rest your head upon me
I have strength to carry you
(Ghosts of the twenties rising)
(Golden summers just holding you)
Follow me down to the valley below
(Follow me follow me down)
You know
Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul
Follow me down to the valley below
(Follow me follow me down)
You know
Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul
Come to us
Lazarus
It's time
For you to go
