Envy On The Coast — Made Of Stone

I don't believe in much of anything
I threw that away when I found out
Jesus never learned to sing
I'll wear the crown if you say that it fits
You say my head has grown but it fits through the door
And you think...

And you think I'm made of stone,
I'm chiseled out of brick.
I'm a vase that shatters
Holding such beautiful things.
I'm made of stone,
I'm chiseled out of brick.
I believe in this,
I believe in this,
I believe in this...

I'm a machine,
I'm made of recycled clicks
To keep you in line when you step out of time,
I rule with my iron fist
I think about the plan the whole world wrote for us
And sometimes it hurts,
Sometimes it hurts,
Sometimes it hurts...

When you think I'm made of stone,
I'm chiseled out of brick.
I'm a vase that shatters
Holding such beautiful things.
I'm made of stone,
I'm chiseled out of brick.
I believe in this,
I believe in this,
I believe in this...

I believe in this [3x]

Stoned in my room,
Yeah they would stone me in my sleep
I learned to stare the way that he did
The way that Jesus watched his sheep
I do this to breathe into the choir,
I preach
You know how it feels,
You know how it feels,
You know how it feels...

When I start to think you're made of stone,
You're chiseled out of brick.
You're the vase that shatters
Holding such a pitiful thing.
You're made of stone,
You're chiseled out of brick.
I still believe in this.

Краткое описание

Текст песни Envy On The Coast — Made Of Stone олицетворяет внутренние борьбы и желание быть непоколебимым, хотя это может принести боль. Главный герой отказывается верить во многие вещи после разочарования в религии и ищет опору в собственной «каменной» уверенности. Он описывает себя как «машина из переработанных щелчков», пытаясь сохранить контроль над окружающими. Песня также обращается к тому, что даже кажущиеся крепкими люди имеют свои слабости и моменты уязвимости. Мощные метафоры о камне и кирпиче создают образ стойкости и твердости, хотя внутри может быть место для разрушения и красоты. В целом, текст песни звучит как искреннее признание сложности самого себя и постоянную борьбу между силой и хрупкостью человеческой природы.
