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
and 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 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 wind 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
Aloooone!!! (¡¡¡Alooooooone!!)
And on, I read
until the day was gone
and I sat in regret
about 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
Aloone, Aloooooone!!!
