Hearts of Stone

Lyrics

How do you get right? With one eye closed so tight Slipping backwards Falling prey to plastic eyes So hard to walk straight For the style has made you sway In every cabaret On every strip that bears your name Open your eyes; you are standing empty and cold Open your mouth if your voice can never be sold Burn the bridge down Take the long road into town Where all the bastards And the witches mark their ground In the corners Where the lost souls have been found There lies a purpose Before yourself dead in the ground Open your eyes; you are standing empty and cold Open your mouth if your voice can never be sold I only know hearts made of stone rarely sail far And may never reach home And so is the cost to live dead ands lost Searching the stars to find which is ours
