"Like A Stone" - 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
and if we're good we'll lay to rest
anywhere we want to go

(chorus)
in your house I long to be
room by room patiently
I'll wait for you there
like a stone I'll wait for you there
alone

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 call
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'll wait for you there
like a stone I'll wait for you there
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 wander on

 

Thank you Mel for this song selection!
