[Verse 1]
I dig in the rubble with both hands
My fingers are numb, my eyes burn
Build myself mountains of pain and questions
They should put me under them bury!
I go into furrowed rocks with the hammer
Don't take a break, I have to roll for years
Put holes in the fear, in my conscience
First chunks are there from childhood and missing
[Chorus]
And then I sit on the bed and eat stones
Yours, mine, big ones, little ones
Bite my teeth if I crush them
I think that's the only way it will pass
And so I sit on the bed and eat stones
Old, heavy, pointed, fine ones
Until I I'm done with it, leave me alone
I think that's the only way it'll pass
So stone by stone
Stone by stone
[Verse 2]
Then down into the depth, into the dark shaft
Where the candle goes out and I carry on
Even if the bird down here no longer sings a song
I will bring up tons of rubble
And then I'm crouching in the rubble, digging with both hands
What if my hands suddenly found yours?
What would be, if my hands suddenly found yours?
What would it be like if we found ourselves between stones?
[Chorus]
And then I sit on the bed and eat stones
Yours, mine, big ones, small ones
Take out my teeth when I crush them
I think that's the only way it's over
And so I sit on the bed and eat stones
Old, heavy, pointy, fine ones
Until I'm done with them, leave me alone
I think that's the only way it's over
/>So stone by stone
Stone by stone
[Bridge]
And at some point
Between the last stones
A first shine
A first shine
Of new life, new light
[Chorus]
And then I sit on the bed and eat stones
Yours, mine, big ones, small ones
With me my teeth come out when I crush them
I think that's the only way it's over
And so I sit on the bed and eat stones
Old, heavy, pointed, fine ones
/>Until I'm done with it, leave me alone
I think that's the only way it'll pass
Stone by stone
Stone by stone
Stone by stone
Stone by stone
