Lyrics
This is not a weakness
This is me reflecting
Honest is as honest does
In a house made out of stone
I'm not passing judgement
This is me returning
What you give is what you get
So you never feel all alone
I carry this weight
Since it's close to my heart
Won't let a white coat poison
Ever tear us apart
Blood thicker than water
Never did learn to swim
Still I jump back in (and)
I carry these stones
Keep them all to myself
In a bag called forgiveness
But I never will forget
Something more than nothing
When nothing stands to reason
Numbing up all you know how
Drowning your sins away
This is not becoming
This is not your ending
Still putting up walls
Just to keep me out
Try pushing your shit away
I'm over paying for sins
Got no blood on my hands
But the hangman's coming
I'm labeled a man
Find me guilty
Give it all you think that it's worth
When I'm gone,
Things will only be worse
So I carry these stones
Keep them all to myself
In a bag called forgiveness
But I never will forget
Hang with the devil you know
My house is made of stone
God and Devil always by my side
So I never feel so alone
I want to shine my bright
So I play with my dark
Steady to balance out the head and the heart
Digging through endings to get back to the start
And find myself again
I made my cross
Wood, hammer and nails
Out of every sin,
Every time that I failed
Never asked to play savior
Never was a part of my plan
Nothing more than just a man
So I carry these stones
Keep them all to myself
In a bag called forgiveness
But I never will forget
