Like a Stone (Audioslave Cover)

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 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 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, alone

And on I read

Until 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 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, alone
