Like a Stone

[Verse 1] 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 wanna 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 [Verse 2] 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 [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, alone 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, alone
