Rachael Sage - Stone Lyrics

I could've done anything all day-to-day but
Sit inside these walls and wait
For you to come and set it all on fire, burn it all
I could've sought anyone I'd left behind
Instead of seeking out the kind of
Ghosts who have been filling up my
Cabinets, my TV-sets are

Opening instead of closing,
Whispering as I grow numb as
Any old woman who has
Outlived her own children

Up on the hill that is my body
Over there I wait with peace another
Moment I'll be singing
Before I fall to my knees
Into the ocean where you’re spilling
Over here I stand alone another
Message I'll be bringing if you
Throw away your stone

I could've sipped any wine to ease my mind
But I stood sober, clear inside this
Fortress of alertness with no
Sheets upon my skin
I could've been petrified with fear and blind
To any kindness all this while
But I sleep with an angel pricking
Me without a pin until I'm

Opening instead of closing,
Whispering as I grow numb as
Any old woman who has
Outlived her own children

Up on the hill that is my body
Over there I wait with peace another
Moment I'll be singing
Before I fall to my knees
Into the ocean where you’re spilling
Over here I stand alone another
Message I'll be bringing if you
Throw away your stone

Who doesn't see best in the desert
Where there's nothing else to cling to
I've been waiting for so long
If we could read between the
Sandcastles inside our eyes then
Maybe we could find away to
Heal what's wrong...

Opening instead of closing,
Whispering as I grow numb…

Message I'll be bringing if you
Throw away your stone
