STONE SOUR
"The House Of Gold & Bones"

[Intro:]
RU486, RU486, RU486, RU486, RU486

Oh, this is what it's coming to
Another Waterloo
You wanna put me underground 'cause I'm overused
Giving up as you're pulling me down
I will make you come unglued
You can cover me in subtleties
What an effigy
I can fake it 'cause you'll never be real to me
I'm innocent! I know I'm near the end
But if I can't understand I will never win

[Pre-Chorus:]
The more I know my mind
The more I leave you all behind
Living in the shadow of doubt
I'll never obey, but I'll always decide

[Chorus:]
All my hopes survive
I've got to do it alone
I will burn alive in the House of Gold and Bones

Oh, you're the epitome
Of all the shit in me
And I'm surrounded by the people I will never be
Either way I've got nothing to prove
To a son of a bitch like you
Well, this is hell and I wanted it
But I'm an idiot
It's a phase 'cause I know I'm illegitimate

[Bridge:]
Kill it!
I wanna see it!
I wanna feel it!
I won't be here forever!

[Pre-Chorus:]
The more I know my mind
The more I leave you all behind
Living in the shadow of doubt
I'll never obey and I'll always decide

[Chorus:]
All my hopes survive
I've got to do it alone
I will burn alive in the House of Gold and Bones

[Pre-Chorus:]
The more I know my mind
The more I leave this world behind
Living in the shadow of doubt
I'm already gone, I'm already alive

[Chorus:]
All my hopes survive
I've got to do it alone
I will burn alive in the House of Gold and Bones
All my hopes survive
I've got to do it alone
I will burn alive in the House of Gold and Bones

[Outro:]
In the House of Gold and Bones
In the House of Gold and Bones!
