I can't keep going this way
Carry the weight
Until my back breaks
No
You don't know what it takes
Easy to say
And I got no one to blame
Stones
I keep them under my pillow when I sleep in my bed
I take them with me when I'm going away
With my pockets full of stones I step into the river
I just wanna float
But they won't let me
I've been building walls
For a long long time
Don't remember what for
But now I can't get out
Getting boring
Taking sides
With the voices in my mind
Get it twisted
Or get it right
Either way just let it die
Let's do the same thing, then do it again
Because we can
Because we can
The longer the road
The heavier the load
But I carry on
With my pockets full of stones I step into the river
I just wanna float
But they won't let me
I've been building walls
For a long long time
Don't remember what for
But now I can't get out
I'd rather breathe in the same old dust
Die from the same disease
But nothing ever lasts
And you're so hard to please
I'd rather breathe in the same old dust
Die from the same disease
But nothing ever lasts
And I'm so hard to please
With my pockets full of stones I step into the river
I just wanna float
But they won't let me
I've been building walls
For a long long time
Don't remember what for
But now I can't get out
Stones
I step into the river
I just wanna float
But they won't let me
I've been building walls
For a long long time
Don't remember what for
But now I can't get out

They don’t know where you’re running to, boy
They don’t know what you know
You are the dying kind
People like you always get what they want
They’re all driving on a highway
No one knows where to
Treasure finder could be you
She could give it to you
She could give it to you
If you ask real nice
She could give it to you
She could give it to you
When you don’t even try
She could give it to you
She could give it to you
If you climb real high
You may win the fight
You may hold on tight
Still
Lady Fortune might change her mind
She’ll be running up late
With her hands on your fate...
Do you think you can take
Them saying it straight?
And you can deal with the hate and the lies
But nothing hits you quite hard
As a friendly advise
They’re all digging
in a search for something true
Treasure finder could be you
She could give it to you
She could give it to you
If you ask real nice
She could give it to you
She could give it to you
When you don’t even try
She could give it to you
She could give it to you
If you climb real high
You may win the fight
You may hold on tight
Still
Lady Fortune might change her mind
And I see
the way your eyes are opened wide
When the world’s asleep you’re
Staring at the sky
You can’t help but wonder why
Far out of your reach
There’s things you wanna try
She could give it to you
She could give it to you
If you ask real nice
She could give it to you
She could give it to you
When you don’t even try
She could give it to you
She could give it to you
If you climb real high
You may win the fight
You may hold on tight
Still
Lady Fortune might change her mind
If you ask real nice...
When you don’t even try...
If you climb real high...
You may win the fight
You may hold on tight
Still
Lady Fortune might change her mind
