Stone

(album: So Much For Substitutes - 2003)

So much for fame and things you can lose
So much for substitutes
So much for the strain of playing a game
Where champions always lose everything
I won't treat your love
Like an adolescent fling
'Cause when everyone's gone
You're the only one who stays

I'd rather be Your stone
Than light up another's sky
I'd rather be Your stone
Cause all Your stones become you diamonds

You gave me a name I could never gain
With even my college try
Convinced by Your touch, it was more than enough
I'm leaving old treasures in the dust
'Cause I found this pearl
I'd give everything to have, I have it

Out of darkest deep
You dig me up
And you crush me
And you lift me up

And to give You thanks
I can only love you more
