BLOOD AND STONE . 
                            

The stone that stayed the rivers course
was always there for me
when the current ran too strong
through the storm I'd see,
a surer footing in the night
to guide me through the mist
my parents love stands like the stone
through time it still persists,

CHORUS:
And every day that came to pass
was never faced alone
the keepers of a safer place
timeless, 
blood and stone.

The leaf that rode the rivers crest
like me was current bound
but always at the waterfall
a greater love was found,
to save me from myself it seemed
the river just rushed by
and through the coldest, darkness night
they never left my side.

CHORUS:
And every day that comes to pass
will not be faced alone
my parents are forever there
timeless,
blood and stone.
