Stone 07:49
i loved you so long ago when i was young and you would glow a boy has no such thing as time dreams will die when the sun is gone the morning birds and their morning song the beating heart and breath of life what happened to the love i knew the only gift i gave to you i’ve given you everything that i ever owned just to watch you drown in a sea of stone i saw the storm awake in a blue sky that was fake i saw the anger in her eyes reaching out with her withered hands she sends the rains to a dying land another sign begins to rise but you decided this would all disappear in the sea and you believed you were well in the clear from debris so you destroyed everything that was near everything that was dear to me what happen to the love i knew the only gift i gave to you i see these lives just passing by without a care or a distance cry i thought it was ecstasy this illusion was strangling me hoping for a chance to run away i find that when i stare my brown eyes they begin to glare feel my inside start to decay but you decided this would all disappear in the sea and you believed you were well in the clear from debris so you destroyed everything that was near everything that was dear to me what happen to the love i knew the only gift i gave to you i see these lives just passing by without a care or a distance cry what happened to the love i knew the only gift i gave to you i’ve given you everything that i ever owned just to watch you drown in a sea of stone i let you feel the sun your home you did betray this war that you begun a price we'll have to pay this world was yours to run and you threw it all away away...away...away... Hey...hey...hey...hey... but you decided this would all disappear in the sea and you believed you were well in the clear from debris so you destroyed everything that was near everything that was dear to me what happen to the love i knew the only gift i gave to you i see these lives just passing by without a care or a distance cry what happened to the love i knew the only gift i gave to you i’ve given you everything that i ever owned just to watch you drown in a sea of stone

it's gonna be alright it's gonna be ok the past is out of site and everything is on its way letting go of fear comes a brand new age that sound you hear is music from a brand new stage you know how to think but they know how to sell you can take a drink you can end up in heaven or hell you hung onto religion like you were hanging from a string so it forces your decision and it changes and it changes everything you knew when to kneel and what time to cry taught you how to feel and what to wear even when you die but you're the god and you're the spirit and you're the son and it's not that odd and you can feel it you know why my boy you're number one you were drowning like a man over board the waves were pounding made you land on another shore and now you're learning you could always sing when your voice is burning it changes it changes everything they keep you guessing where's paradise? bestowing blessings for a special price you were a soldier fighting for that king now that you're older it changes it changes everything choose the right all on your own win the fight to fight the unknown you find yourself in a world that you believed in remind yourself that's the world you were deceived in so why do i even try to hide the things i can't deny you're praying obeying but god loves you when you're paying you knew it and you blew it the devil made you do it you're praying obeying but god loves you when you're paying you knew it and you blew it the devil the devil He made you do it you're praying obeying but god loves you when you're paying you knew it and you blew it the devil made you do it

did you think that you’d be sitting here did you ever wonder how everything became so unclear about a future that you just could never find did you know that it could get like this did you ever figure out that there would be so much to miss from a past you could never leave behind did you feel that you could get this down did you ever believe that you could run away from this town now you sit alone here inside your car did you think the rain would get this bad did you ever understand you could lose everything you had without a road you can’t drive that far and i can read between the lines i know that you don’t read the same signs you always sail in stormy weather without a cloud up in the sky but her love will hold everything together don’t let it hurt when you say goodbye when you say goodbye do you feel the wind against your face do you know the flood is here but you're searching for a holy place while all your dreams now they gently drift away do you see how this came to an end do you finally feel the fear is it something you can comprehend time to wake up to another stormy day and i can read between the lines i know that you don’t read the same signs i know i can read between the lines i know that you don’t read the same signs you always sail in stormy weather without a cloud up in the sky but her love will hold everything together don’t let it hurt when you say goodbye when you say goodbye you always sail in stormy weather without a cloud up in the sky but her love will hold everything together don’t let it hurt when you say goodbye when you say goodbye all the words that you said some were good and some were bad but seasons change and we rearrange for a new day just ahead every moment you threw away was a pearl from yesterday and now you’re here and it all disappeared with nothing left to say and there’s nothing left to say you always sail in stormy weather without a cloud up in the sky but her love will hold everything together don’t let it hurt when you say goodbye when you say goodbye

if you could live inside a perfect place would you be happy if you could live at a slower pace or would you find a way to show that attitude always stressing out because you think you have to and i know that you are serious it's in your eyes you are delirious you believe it's too mysterious for you to simply live a simple life you balance the world while making homemade bread you can walk a tightrope while making sure that all is fed you can entertain guests and help the homeless too everyone is wondering if there is more that you can do if i were you i think i'd have a heart attack i can see the pressure of your world is now heavy on your back i had a dream of a sunny place that made us warm but you set sail searching for a complicated raging storm and i know that you are serious it's in your eyes you are delirious you believe it's too mysterious for you to simply live a simple life you've got the green light but you don't know where to go dry land surrounds you but you're somehow stranded in the snow the mind of a genius but you don't know what you know know what you know love it's only love there's no need to be so serious if i could give you a perfect day would you hold it close or would you throw it away is it too much to ask for you to settle down is it too less of a life to get your feet back on the ground i gave you simple words that never won your heart you gave me god and guilt that tore my simple life apart and as you pray to the man who lives up in your sky i humbly bow out of this fight to you both i say goodbye and i know that you are serious it's in your eyes you are delirious you believe it's too mysterious for you to simply live a simple life you've got the green light but you don't know where to go dry land surrounds you but you're somehow stranded in the snow the mind of a genius but you don't know what you know know what you know love it's only love there's no need to be so serious and i know that you are serious it's in your eyes you are delirious you believe it's too mysterious for you to simply live a simple life

images i see in a world of imagination dreams they always comfort me take me from this misery wrap me in your arms and always hold me near this world that was so kind was not the one i left behind it’s true it’s what i see in you you remind me of someone i knew she was so kind to me big blue lights and merry go rounds everybody's moving up and down faces twisting shadows shifting whispers for me to stay losing grip and slipping away as others walk on by drowning slowly when they know me even though i cry in my house were memories sunny skies and growing trees pictures fading now I'm waiting the storm knows when to show stories come and stories go but nightmares still remain reaching deeply when you don't need me i still call out your name it’s true it’s what i see in you you remind me of someone i knew she was so kind to me in you you remind me of someone i knew she was so kind to me in my prayer i could smell your hair i need to close my eyes just to see you there i'll mark my sin just to breathe you in fall from the skies just to feel your skin you you remind me of someone i knew she was so kind to me
