Iron in the Stone (version 2)

Verse 1

Iron in the stone

Cold light on my breastbone

I don't ask why

Only this: it stays till I'm free at last

Chorus

Let the iron in the stone

Burn the frost off my bones

This is where I stand

Verse 2

Ashen satellite

Rust in every nerve

Cut through every lie

Drive the silence from your sleeve

Pre-Chorus

I don't ask why

Only this: it stays till I'm free at last

Chorus

Let the iron in the stone

Burn the frost off my bones

This is where I stand

Bridge

Stone, blood, wind and rain

Nothing's left to claim except the weight of steel I hold

Not a question — just this: I will not break

Chorus

Let the iron in the stone

Burn the frost off my bones

This is where I stand
