Blood from a Stone

[Verse 1]

In the shadow of the hole, where my door used to be

You never give up, you want more out of me

Come on in, help yourself

Scratch around, look at these empty shelves

There's nothing else that I can see

Except a string of beads in some old potpourri

[Chorus]

You rip flesh from the bone

You suck blood from a stone

[Verse 2]

I will consider a life of crime

So I can feed these kids of mine

And should I fall down, should I fail

I'll spend the rest of my days in some stinking jail

I won't know who left me to your side

Stripped of my dignity, low and dry

[Chorus]

You rip flesh from the bone

You suck blood from a stone

[Bridge]

Ooh, you left me nothing

Oh, I don't care

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

You rob me blind without a gun

How can you sleep after what you've done?

There's nothing but darkness deep in your soul

There's no reflection, it's dark and it's cold

[Chorus]

You rip flesh from the bone

You suck blood from a stone

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

You rip flesh from the bone

You suck blood from a stone

[Organ Solo Outro]
