Audioslave’s “Like a Stone” revised
on a cobweb afternoon
in a room full of emptiness
by a freeway i confess
i was lost in the pages
of a book full of death
reading how we’ll die alone (I love you, Kierkegaard)
but if we choose we’ll finally rest
anywhere we want to go
(chorus)
in Your house i long to be
room by room patiently
i’ll wait for You here (Psalm 130:5)
like a stone i’ll wait for You here (1 Peter 2:5)
Home (Luke 17:21)
on my deathbed i will pray
to the God of the angels
I’ll be praying to the Son
who will take me to heaven
to a place i recall
You were there so long ago
Your body bruised
the wine was bled
and there You led me on
in Your house i long to be
room by room patiently
i’ll wait for You here (Psalm 130:5)
like a stone i’ll wait for You here (1 Peter 2:5)
Home (Luke 17:21)
and on i read
until the Day had come
and i sat in regret
of all the things i’d done
for all I’d not blessed
and all that i’d wronged
awakened from my death
i will wander on (Hebrews 11:13)
