"Elijah Rose" lyrics

"Elijah Rose"

Elijah Rose
Seven years old
When your daddy
He cut you down

Took all that pain
Buried away
Don't you know
It'll be back someday

Illusion is power
In this sacred hour
You can't come back
Back the way you came

But there's a beautiful star
Wherever you are
I see it shining
Shine through your clothes

So why don't you stand up
And raise your hand up
If Elijah is standing
Elijah Rose

Living in the dark too long
Living in the dark
Living in the dark
Living in the dark
Living in the dark

Living in the dark too long
Living in the dark
Living in the dark
Living in the dark
Compass in my heart

Living in the dark too long
Living in the dark
Living in the dark
Living in the dark
Compass in my heart

Living in the dark too long

Elijah Rose
Seven years old
When your daddy
He cut you down
