Blood From A Stone Lyrics

What you needed, what you wanted
It's been here the whole time
So sorry for the heavy burden
Time to let it roll, let it ride
And follow your heart ‘till we die.
Keep searching for something

Once we believe we were all enough
We keep losing the fight
I'm sorry for the things that I have done
You took it from me, like blood from a stone

What you see you run right over
I've been walking straight lines
Now we free the guilty man
Time to let it go, let it right
And follow your heart ‘till we die
Keep searching for something

Once we believe we were all enough
We keep losing the fight
I'm sorry for the things that I have done
You took it from me, like blood from a stone

Something don’t feel right
Hold on a bit longer dear
I won't be down or long
No I won't be ripped away
Oh I think I've had enough
You'll never know the feeling

Once we believe we were all enough
We keep losing the fight
I'm sorry for the things that I have done
You took it from me, Like blood from a stone

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

As stated on Loudwire.com: This is a brooding, dark track defined by undulating rhythms, slightly dissonant melodies and a strong, push/pull dynamic thanks to the anthemic accented drumming from Morgan Rose. Washing away the angst, at least in part, is (vocalist) Lajon Witherspoon, whose uplifting presence counters the bleaker moments on the track. "'Blood From a Stone' was inspired by the endurance and threshold of our band, the wins and the losses, the good and bad years. That we have more to give, more to say and we pull that out of each other," stated guitarist Clint Lowery.

I personally myself believe this track is inspiring in the wake of all this tension & tragedy in our world today, that we need to find strength & healing amongst one another and within ourselves, - I think it speaks to the possible triumph of the human spirit.
