Blood Out Of A Stone

from Was It Something I Said? by Chris Swinney

/

lyrics

So this is how it ends
And now I must pretend
I really give a damn at all
You’ve made your final bed
With all you’ve done and said
And now your back’s against the wall

So ill it was conceived
The plan that you believed
Would keep it all in place
But now the weight has gone
You put too much pressure on
And it blew up in your face

Now tell me what you’re gonna do
Now you don’t have a say
I can’t believe you really thought
That it would stay that way
No use asking me
For my sympathy
Now you’re all alone
That’s blood out of a stone

So this is how it ends
There’s nothing that depends
On any order you could give
It’s written on your face
You haven’t left a trace
Of anything to bargain with

Just take your final bow
If you remember how
To bend a little bit
But don’t expect applause
After all the pain you’ve caused
Much more than you’d admit
