Covered In Stones
words/music © matt ralph 2007
Will you always be that painted lady,
Hiding from the sun,
Will you always be that crazy woman,
Walking on her own,
Covered in stones,
Covered in stones,
Will you always be the one you run to,
Rather than your friends,
Will you always ask the same old questions,
When I see you again,
You’re covered in stones,
Covered in stones,
Will they take it,
Try to take it back away,
So you hide it,
By hiding your self,
Covered in stones,
Covered in stones,
Will it always be just one long lesson,
That just goes on and on,
Will you always try to reach it,
You grab it but it’s gone,
You’re covered in stones,
Covered in stones,
How many places can you go,
How many faces can you know,
When you’re covered in stones,
Covered in stones,
Will you always try to end the moment,
Just when it’s begun,
Will you always second guess the motives,
Of gifts from anyone,
Covered in stones,
Will you always search for something,
You know you’ll never see,
Will you always want from someone,
What you know they’ll never be,
You’re covered in stones,
Covered in stones,
