Stone Hands

Baby put your stone hands on me
The cold is on me
And I'm sinking low
Hard times are on me
And I need you so

Baby put your hands on me
Press your soul down hard upon me
I'm falling fast
I'm full of need
Press down those stone hard hands on me

Baby, I'm down here
Way deep down dark here
My lamp turned low
Weighted down
Pushed to the ground
Wrestling with woe
Thinking about those stone hard hands
So goddamned cold

Baby put your hands upon me
Lay them heavy hard hands down on me
Be my stone angel
My angel of soul
I need your hardness
To absolve this cold

Baby put your hands on me
Them stone cold hands upon me
Hard times are on me
And I need you so

Baby put them hands on me
press your love down on me
Hard times are upon me
And I need you so
Yeah hard times are upon me
And I need you so

    brutally beautiful...awesome job!

    wonderful flow too, loved it! It would make a great
    pounding song...I was listening to Nickelback when
    I read this...their song, This is how you remind me of
    what I really am....I'm point blank telling you that
    your words flowed with their tune and beat, the lead
    singer singing "I've been down to the bottom of every
    bottle...and then your words, Baby put your hands on
    me, them stone cold hands upon me" as I was reading,
    it was really eerie like you were leading HIS song!


    You are a really interesting writer, keep it up!
    You are bold and not afraid of the words, no hiding
    for you!

      What an awesomely inspiring comment! Thanks so much! I love Nickleback and "This is How You Remind Me" happens to be one of my favourite tunes by them. I thought it strange that you mentioned those two facts... I was not listening to them at the time of this write nor had I for awhile ...wow, you made me feel great!!!
