Stones Songtext
von Alaw

At first it feels like discipline
A man must feel no pain
And if emotions start to rise
Just push them back again
Though I can feel the pressure build
I′m trying not to crack

For words like stones that have been thrown
They can't be taken back

A sudden flash of enmity
For all that was not said
Care, compassion, tolerance
Consumed in clouds of red
My vicious tongue is off the leash
I go on the attack

But words like stones that have been thrown
They can′t be taken back


Resentment grows like bitter weeds
In fields of slow regret
Blots out the sun of our reason
And helps us to forget
Now in the house where we once lived
The walls are painted black

For words like stones that have been thrown
They can't be taken back

The hate we deal, the pain we feel
In time it fades away
Now at last just sad remorse
Must face the light of today
But we can paint these walls again
And build a place to live
The stone was thrown, we won't forget
Perhaps we can forgive

Yes, we can paint these walls again
And build a place to live
The stone was thrown, we won′t forget
Perhaps we can forgive
