[Verse 1]

When I'm all by myself

The silence seems so absurd

Dripping words from my mouth

It never feels like I’ve heard

And I feel like I'm done

I'm tired is all I can say

When it wears down my health

It’s time to take this away

[Chorus]

Cause when it breaks down

It's like it's written in stone

And when it fades out

I feel the pain in my bones

It's like it's written in stone

[Verse 2]

When the sun's heading south

And all the cows come to herd

Will the flames get snuffed out?

By the screams of the birds

And I feel like I tried

To quiet all my dismay

But it tore me apart

The violence out on display

[Chorus]

Cause when it breaks down

It's like it's written in stone

And when it fades out

I feel the pain in my bones

[Chorus]

Cause when it breaks down

It’s like it’s written in stone

And when it fades out

I feel the pain in my bones

It's like it’s written in stone

[Outro]

Like it's written in stone

Like it's written in stone

Like it's written in stone
