"Carved From Stone" lyrics

"Carved From Stone"

I am a sculpture carved from stone
Waiting for you to come back home

Two years, I have been waiting
Every day I fold my hands and start begging
Your paralysis is constant but so is this simple truth:
I am a sculpture carved from stone
Waiting for you to come back home
I'm sleeping in scattered fragments
Killing time before your return

They can't tell me when you'll wake up
But I know you can hear my words

I'd cut my heart out
Just so you could see another sky filled with light
They tell me to let you go
That you are a ghost living inside a shell of someone I once loved

Two days, I haven't seen sleep
See, it's hard when my eyes burn and I can't breathe
My paralysis is constant but so is this simple truth:
As long as your heart keeps beating
I'll be here until I cease breathing

They can't tell me when you'll wake up
But I know you can hear my words

I'd cut my heart out
Just so you could see another sky filled with light
They tell me to let you go
That you are a ghost living inside a shell of someone I once loved

I am a sculpture carved from stone
Waiting for you to come back home

You can't just leave
Not after making all these memories
The days and nights we spent
They're haunting me
But they're the only things that keep me going

I am a sculpture carved from stone
Waiting for you to come back home

I'd cut my heart out
Just so you could see another sky filled with light
But I'll never let you go
You're not a ghost living in a shell of someone I once loved
