Left Behind
Throwing Stones
Eternity goes on, I'm still your slave
I've wasted it all, no life to save
Cuts turned to scabs, I watched them heal
Rip them open again just to feel
Praying for an answer, where were you?
Never had a choice, I never knew
The wrong way up a one way street
Fearing God just to live on your knees
Wanting more, never being complete
The cries come and ignoring all pleas
If you didn't want it, you shouldn't have asked
Your soul is mine, no strings attached
You're not in a cell but you're not out of Hell
It's getting old, your soul has sold
Sometimes I miss the heat
Sometimes I miss the pain
Because then I knew I hadn't buried anything
Sometimes I miss the burn
Sometimes I miss the hurt
'Cause then I knew it couldn't get any worse
I felt the burn, I peeked into hell
Tried to get back with nothing to sell
Heart no longer beats, it's turned to stone
It's turned to stone, it's turned to stone
Skin turned to ash, no longer burns
No longer burns, no longer burns
No air was left
I breathe in smoke
The burns always smoke
The smoke always rises
So maybe something goes to Heaven after all
But I know it's not me
I know it's not me
How much does a heart weigh?
'Cause mine feels like stone
How much can a man change?
For these sins I can't atone
Throwing stones
To escape this pain
I'll never say your name in vain
Throwing stones
'Cause I can't find a better way
Throwing stones
To break the glass so I can breathe
Throwing stones
'Til I can't lift them
Throwing stones
'Cause my heart is granite
Throwing stones
It's not me anymore
Throwing stones
It's not me anymore
