Audioslave: Like A Stone

On a cold wet 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 a god will lay to rest
Anywhere we want to go

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 my death bed, I will pray
To the gods and the angels
Like a pagan
To anyone who will take me to heaven

To a place, I’d recall
I was there so long ago
The sky was bruised
The world was black
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

In all I read
Until the day was gone
And I sat in regret
In all the things that 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’ll wait for you there
Like a stone
I’ll wait for you there

Alone
