Like A Stone lyrics
by Audioslave



On a cobweb afternoon
in a room full of emptiness,
by a freeway, I confess
I was lost in the pages
of a book full of death.
Reading how we'll die alone.
If we're good, we'll lay to rest
anywhere we want to go.

In your house, I long to be.
Room by room, patiently
I wait for you there like a stone.
I wait for you there alone.

And on my deathbed, I will pray
to the Gods and the Angels
like a pagan to anyone
who will take me to Heaven.
To a place I recall
I was there so long ago.
The sky was bruised.
The wine was bled.
And there you led me on.

In your house, I long to be.
Room by room, patiently.
I wait for you there, like a stone.
I wait for you there,
alone, alone.

And on I read, until the day was gone.
And I sat in regret of all the things I've done.
For all that I've blessed, and all that I've wronged.
In dreams until my death, I will wonder on.

In your house, I long to be.
Room by room, patiently.
I wait for you there, like a stone.
I wait for you there,
alone, alone.
