Stone Heart

(album: Trauma Queen - 2022)

I don't mean no harm
But I just can't keep from hurting you
Clinging to your arm, pull away
But there's no breaking through

All these chains spill from my heart
Welded shut by my volcanic tears
Never tearing us apart
Can't escape my love for fifty years

You can run but you can't hide
I scratched my name inside your mind
You were trapped here from the start
'Cause I chiseled my initials
In your stone heart
Never gonna be a memory
Always gonna keep you here with me
Our love is a work of art
'Cause I chiseled my initials
Chiseled my initials
In your stone heart

My thoughts move fast
My heart beats slow
So these minutes feel like forever
Paint me with your empathy
So we can be together

Build me up from dust and ash
I could never not love you, so
I'll do the one thing you ask
I love you enough to let you go

You can run but you can't hide
I scratched my name inside your mind
You were trapped here from the start
'Cause I chiseled my initials
In your stone heart
Never gonna be a memory
Always gonna keep you here with me
Our love is a work of art
'Cause I chiseled my initials
In your stone heart

Ah, ah, ah ah
Oh, your stone heart
I'm the ghost you never believed in
Could've loved you to the end
Oh, I broke up with all my demons
We're much better off as friends

Oh, you can run but you can't hide
I scratched my name inside your mind
You were trapped here from the start
'Cause I chiseled my initials
In your stone heart

Never gonna be a memory
Always knew you'd be the death of me
Our love is a work of art
'Cause I chiseled my initials
Chiseled my initials
Chiseled my initials
In your stone heart

(Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ohh)
Oh, your stone heart
(Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ohh)
Oh, your stone heart
(Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ohh)
Oh, your stone heart
(Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ohh)
Oh, your stone heart
