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 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 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 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 "LIKE A STONE" Audioslave
