House of Stone

Fill up another box
With your feelings towards her
Take it and dig a hole in the yard
Bury those fevered emotions
Deep in the ground

Look around you
Miles and miles of markers surround you
All these things you bottled up
Have brought you here

You made this house of stone
As not to feel so alone
But for what you could not atone
You could never be forgiven

Fill up another box
Take the nascent love you found
Seedlings and sprouts, root them all out
Bury these sweet things
Deep in the ground

Look around you
Miles and miles of markers surround you
All the things you could never say
You're reminded of every day

You made this house of stone
As not to feel so alone
But for what you could not atone
You could never be forgiven

You grow your garden tall
With ivy to climb the walls
But inside the house
No one ever seems to be home
You take another step
Towards the heart you left
You can't bury this feeling again
It needs to breathe alive...

You made this house of stone
As not to feel so alone
But for what you could not atone
You could never be forgiven
