Audioslave Like A Stone

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

If we're good we’ll 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

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 recall

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

untill 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

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
