Chisel & Stone

I see your struggles, I know you see mine too

There ain't no one gonna come and take the pain away from you

Yeah, you should know that you got everything you need

To pick yourself up from the wreckage, sew yourself up from the seam

She dives off in another pond, her patience wearin' thin

Water's fine but nothin' like the lake she learned to swim

While wading through the flow she knows won't ever take her home

Sayin', "Mark my words with chisel and stone, I ain't goin' out of this world alone"

She said, "My bones are scattered, heart is open to the elements

I need a man to come along and hover over top and shelter it"

She's waited for so long, she'll probably wait until she's dead

To find the perfect man that checks off all the boxes she collected in her head

She dives off in another pond, her patience wearin' thin

Water's fine but nothin' like the lake she learned to swim

While wading through the flow she knows won't ever take her home

Sayin', "Mark my words with chisel and stone, I ain't goin' out of this world alone"
