Stones

Lyrics

[Verse 1] An old crown with a face of bone A heart of stone within a circle of stones She told me I'd have stones in my shoes With stones in my mouth I kept singing the blues [Pre-Chorus] My suit was torn In the emptiness of outer space I float forever between a rock and a hard place [Chorus] Stones! Falling from the sky More stones! Growing from the ground More stones! Traveling the stars More stones! Boring, thankless, lifeless Stones! Falling from the sky More stones! Growing from the ground More stones! Traveling the stars More stones! Boring, thankless, lifeless Stones... [Verse 2] Under my feet the cobblestones clack Am I the butt of their constant crack? The marble shines, the sheen won't fade A man can't outlast whatever he's made! [Verse 3] The righteous will gather The first stone is soon to fly Against the old wall of stone The blasphemer will die [Chorus] Stones! Falling from the sky More stones! Growing from the ground More stones! Traveling the stars More stones! Boring, thankless, lifeless Stones! Falling from the sky More stones! Growing from the ground More stones! Traveling the stars More stones! Boring, thankless, lifeless Stones! Yeah! [Bridge] Pyramids were made, now bury your dead In stones there's a statement very easily read It'll be just you, your treasures and wives The stones keep on sitting over your lost lives [Pre-Chorus] My suit was torn In the emptiness of outer space I float forever between a rock and a hard place [Chorus] Stones! Falling from the sky More stones! Growing from the ground More stones! Traveling the stars More stones! Boring, thankless, lifeless Stones! Falling from the sky More stones! Growing from the ground More stones! Traveling the stars More stones! Boring, thankless, lifeless Stones! [Chorus] Stones! Growing from the ground More stones! Traveling the stars More stones! Boring, thankless, lifeless Stones! (Stones) Woah, yeah! [Outro] Crushing with indifference Our bones under the stones Voyeurs of misfortune Our bones under the stones, yeah yeah Our bones under the stones
