Cornestone lyrics

I’m alone in a box of stone

When all is said and done

As the wind blows to the East from the West

Unto this bed my tears have their solemn rest

I am lonely, alone in a box of stone

They claimed to love me, but they’re all wrong

For I have been lonely, alone in a box of my own

And this is the place I will say I’ve only belonged

It’s my home

It wasn’t easy getting used to this ; I used to scream

It’s not true that it’s only when a door is locked

That nobody enters

Cause mine had been opened till your own demise

But none had come, well who am I?

What have I done?

I have been lonely, alone in a box of my own

They claim to be near me but they’re all lying

For I have been lonely, alone in a box of stone

And this is place I now belong

Home home home home home

Friends I have met, lovers have slept and wept

Promises to stay had never been kept

This bare truth of which most won’t share,

I hope you share

Cause I’ve been lonely, alone in a box of my own

They claimed to love me

And be near me, but they’re all lying

I have been lonely, alone in a box of stone

And this is the place I now belong

It’s my home.
