Blood From A Stone

album: "Strange Highways" (1993)



Oh you've been surprised
 again pulled like a leaf to the waterfall
Everybody's just pretending
 I thought that you'd learn by now

Oh think about it one more time
 what have you got when the god is gone
Clouds don't have a silver lining and
all you ever get is rain
'cause you can't get blood from a stone
you can't open the door if there's nobody home

They've taken it all so just leave me alone
you can't get blood from a stone
It isn't once upon a time
when nobody falls and the hero flies

That victims got to fit the crime
and nobody goes down with you you you
'cause you can't get blood from a stone
you can't open the door if there's nobody home

They've taken it all so just leave me alone
 you can't get blood from a stone no no
'cause you can't get blood from a stone
 you can't open the door if there's nobody home

They've taken it all so just leave me alone no
 you can't get blood from a stone
No blood from a stone go on and leave me alone
and I know it's a shock
To learn you can't you can't
you can't get blood from a rock
