lirik lagu naomi sv - stone

i was covered in th~rns when you met me
i’d thrown barbed wire around a chamber i thought was empty
convinced myself the oak tree was stronger than the reed

but the bark was dented and scarred
by the axe flung carelessly around
i buried my aches in the pages
not to be reopened

i set them down in a hole in the ground, in the ground, in the ground, in the frozen ground
the wind whistling through the leaves
whispеred like a chorus

“you shall make no morе mistakes
you shall waste no more love
you shall not feel any hurt
and you shall inflict no pain”

so i chiseled myself out of cold stone
wanting no part of this flesh and bone
i climbed in and called it my home

i lay dormant in my carapace
unraveling woven tapestry threads
to be awoken by none
not by the beauty of seven wonders and seas
nor bouquets attached by ribbons of pleas
nor the great symphonies nor orpheus’ lyre
nor the saccharin promise of proverbial fire
nor the blossoms of spring nor the colours of fall
nor the visions of offspring who’ll grow strong and tall
nor the checklist of steps to blindly walk up
so they can claim we’ve finally grown up
i want none of it

but you collided with me with the forewarning of a lightning strike on a clear day
you hit my heel with surgical precision
with a seismic wave, the fault widened
stillness disrupted, the ground erupted

the beating core swells up
and the stone starts to break
through the crack spills the light
from within, it awakes
down the nape the marble
rumbles and crumbles
the quivering pulse turns the statue to rubble

emerge a cl~ster of skin and nerves and bones
the creature arises, stoic crumbs on the floor
in the flash of an instant the door blew wide open
i looked down and saw flames in the cavity where my heart used to be
many moons ago
