Stone of Secrets

Verse 1 They said it held the power, to cheat the hands of time, A stone of endless livin’, a treasure so divine. But in the wrong man’s fingers, it’s a curse instead of grace, A fire born of shadows in the darkest place. Chorus Stone of secrets, burnin’ in the night, Holdin’ men to hunger, blindin’ out their sight. But the hands that guard it steady, are the hands of love and truth, Stone of secrets, show me what’s the proof. Verse 2 I saw him stand before me, a shadow made of flame, A voice like broken thunder, callin’ out my name. He promised me the power, he promised me the gold, But my heart was stronger than the lies he told. Verse 3 In the heat of that moment, I felt the fire burn, But the stone slipped away when the tables turned. ‘Cause only those who never crave the prize can hold it near, And love’s the truest answer when the dark is here. Chorus Stone of secrets, burnin’ in the night, Holdin’ men to hunger, blindin’ out their sight. But the hands that guard it steady, are the hands of love and truth, Stone of secrets, show me what’s the proof. Verse 4 Now the stone’s been hidden where no thief can go, The secret’s buried deeper than the river’s flow. But I’ll remember always what the fire revealed, The power of the heart is the greatest shield. Bridge A treasure ain’t a treasure if it’s bought with lies, The richest gold is livin’ with truth in your eyes. Chorus Stone of secrets, burnin’ in the night, Holdin’ men to hunger, blindin’ out their sight. But the hands that guard it steady, are the hands of love and truth, Stone of secrets, shows me what to do.
