If a stone holds you down |
|
Keep your head above ground |
|
Though the foothold can be merciless |
|
In a world not your own |
|
Its the wieght of the stone |
|
Holding me, holding you |
|
Very fast, quite fast |
|
Its not the wieght of the stone that's holding you down |
|
Its the way it fascinates your mind |
|
And just because it causes you to fall |
|
Don't mean it tempts me very much at all |
|
I can see that it feels like a millstone is tied around your neck |
|
But if you come clean and say,"I don't have it together" |
|
You can still keep your faith in check |
|
3, 7, 9, 10, 12, 14 feet |
|
No spineless fellow here |
|
Down below 100 more and not a sign of fear |
|
X marks the spot at 145 a stone dislodged held him fast |
|
How could he know while now alive |
|
13th day would be his last |
|
They tried and tried to bring him to the surface in vain |
|
If a stone holds you down |
|
Keep your head above ground |
|
Though the foothold can be merciless |
|
For 12 more days the foothold was merciless |
|
With no possible means of ingress or egress |
|
In the end a paradox was found |
|
The beast that held him was a 10 pound stone |
|
Are you afraid - are you afraid? |
|
That where he takes you is a cold, dark lonely place |
|
Where its hard to find his face - hard to find his face |
|
In a world that is not your own |
|
In a world not your own - it's not the wieght of the stone (Repeat Line) |
