The song is about feeling vulnerable. The “Precious Stones” are everything that is precious to you: memories, family, friends.
In terms of the storyline of the album this track comes from 'Emporer of Sand' a sultan offers a wanderer a deal where he’ll take the curse (he put on him) off of him, if the wanderer gives him his memories or precious stones.
