My love turned to stone
The giant of my heart
Til the sun rose
My heart turned to stone too
Threw it in the ocean blue
I watched it sink
Didn't dare to blink
I know the sea
Takes secrets to keep
Felt the distance between
The shooting stars we count for luck
And pearls buried deep
My love built me a house
The walls were a trap
So I struck them down
What did he expect
Of a wish held captive
And still he slept
Through the racket
The daylight
Was soft when it arrived
Flesh became stone
In a moment
Now I walk the world alone
Tired feet and old bones
Freedom has a price
Sometimes you can't go home
