Audioslave Lyrics | Like a Stone Lyric

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 lead 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
