Blood From A Stone Lyrics
It's as if we're tracing some familiar fault line
Running down the coast from you to me
A dark potential just beneath the surface
All the worlds colliding in the tragedyBlood from a stone, wine from water
I'd die here alone, only daughter
Blood from a stone, wine from water
I'd die here alone, like a lamb to slaughterThe silence has become our only currency
For you pay me and I'll be sure to pay you back
But step lightly till you've crossed the jagged border
'Cause the earth may shift beneath you, pull the rug out
All your history keeping trackBlood from a stone, wine from water
I'd die here alone, only daughter
Blood from a stone, wine from water
I'd die here alone, like a lamb to slaughterI'll reel in my addictions in the face of your distress
Aches and pains all shelved and put aside
I'll jump to my conclusions, but I'll leap to your defense
And I wish I were the brave one as I breathe another lie'Cause it runs in the family, it's coursing through our veins
It lingers and gets caught in our hearts
Running in the family, it's a little like insane
The trimmings and the trappings of the artist and the artBlood from a stone, wine from water
I'd die here alone, only daughter
Blood from a stone, wine from water
I'd die here alone, only daughterBlood from a stone, wine from water
I'd die here alone, only daughter
Blood from a stone, wine from water
I'd die here alone, like a lamb to slaughterBlood from a stone
Blood from a stone
