Tears of Stone

A silent night so unexpected, unassuming

Upon the hill, their sleep was then disturbed

There was a raid that killed most of their men

And still, they cried, but nobody heard

It's time to face the truth, there is no end in sight

I cannot let them take my life tonight

What is a man who does not face his death with honor?

Over the edge, we ride

Six suns have set and risen

No prayer I have not given

This deafening silence is all I have, but still, I listen

My heart beats on in yearning

When is my love returning?

I fear the worst has happened

Scared to find I'm right, confirming

I lay awake with pictures running through my head

What is my purpose thinking I'm better dead?

Love brings me closer and closer to the edge

Where I will find you

When will I see your face again?

Can't you see I've cried ten rivers?

But it doesn't bring you home

And all the sadness and the sorrow left inside of me

Forever lives inside these tears of stone

Sometimes I lay and wonder

Why my life's torn asunder

Did I deserve this punishment

This storm of rain and thunder?

What will the afterlife be?

I pray you're waiting for me

I look up to the sky and

Swear I heard your voice just calling

I lay awake with pictures running through my head

What is my purpose thinking I'm better dead?

Love brings me closer and closer to the edge

Where I will find you

When will I see your face again?

Can't you see I've cried ten rivers?

But it doesn't bring you home

And all the sadness and the sorrow left inside of me

Forever lives inside these tears of stone

When will I see your face again?

Can't you see I've cried ten rivers?

But it doesn't bring you home?

And all the sadness and the sorrow left inside of me

Forever lives inside these tears of stone

These tears have turned to stone
