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
