There are so many songs that have been a part of me. So many of them that take me back to some distant memory.At one point or another I've always had a playlist in my head, that was played through and through and would start over once done. Some songs make me happy, the others make me sad., some charge and fire me up... some of them drive me mad. Some songs have taken me to different worlds , others grounded me firm. Some grew on me eventually, others had me from the one , a two...a one two three go!. Old songs and new...Some weird one's and the normal few.
The one's with the messages that Inspired me so.. the one's I could relate to whether Summer, Rain or Snow. There have been so many past and present. Yet this one song swallowed me whole. I think If I allowed myself to be partial a bit... just that little bit, I would say 'Like a Stone'.
Its not the best song I've heard, Its not the most popular either... Its not by the best band in the world(then again I dunno who is..music is so relative), not the best lyrically and yet for me its Platinum ten fold. Your current favorite song is like a relationship heading eventually to a break up. Its on ur mind always , but suddenly something new comes along that makes u move on.
Like a stone for me however was marriage material. I think I'd get down on my knee for this one... Not the most beautiful in the world...but for me there is no other
Sinfully commited

Like a Stone- Audioslave.
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
and if we're good we'll lay to rest
anywhere we want to go
(chorus)
In your house i long to be
room by room patiently
i'll wait for you there
Like a stone
i'll wait for you there
alone .
On my deathbed I will pray
to the gods and the angels
like a pagan to anyone
who will take me to heaven
To a place i recall
i was there so long ago
the sky was 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 there
Like a stone
I'll wait for you there
alone
And on i read
until the day was gone
and i sat in regret
of all the things i've done
for all that i've blessed
and all that i've wronged
in dreams until my death
i will wander on
In your house i long to be
room by room patiently
i'll wait for you there
Like a stone
I'll wait for you there
alooooone...alooooooooooohoooone...ooohn.
