A Stone Would Cry Out Lyrics - Chemical City - Sam Roberts

The cinematic after effects of alcohol 

Have led me to believe 

That there's nothing more beautiful 

Than a face as it starts to fade 

From your memory, what had once been clear as the day 

Obscured by the shade 

And I was always the thorn to your rose 

A long string of disappointing days 

Led me to concede that I'd been losing sleep 

And I'm tired and frayed at the seams 

And things are changing in me 

It's been two hard months since I could call you my own 

It cuts to the bone 

Is there anything that I can do when I've been turned into stone 

But I was always the thorn to your rose 

Some doors are better left closed 

You move like a rolling wave 

One that don't fade when it's gone 

Beyond a doubt it gets so hard that a stone would cry out 

I know there's a lesson in here 

But it's so hard to find 

I've been searching my mind 

A little pearl of wisdom for the later years 

When the thread of this life starts to unwind 

I never had to fight for my love 

But that's over I know 

It's just how it goes 

I never had to fight for my love 

But that's over I know 

It's just how it goes 

And you move like a rolling wave 

One that don't fade when it's gone 

Beyond a doubt it gets so hard, it gets so hard 

That a stone would cry out 

Some doors are better left closed 

Some say this place makes it hard to hold your head up 

Some days this face makes me feel like I've been set up
