Lyrics Mumford & Sons

Mumford & Sons

Roll Away Your Stone

1. Roll away your stone I will roll away mine

Together we can see what we will find

Don't leave me alone at this time

For I am afraid of what I will discover inside

2. You told me that I would find a hole

Beneath the fragile substance of my soul

And I have filled this void with things unreal

And all the while my character it steals

R: Darkness is a harsh term don't you think

Yet it dominates the things I see

3. It seems that all my bridges have been burned

But you say 'That's exactly how this grace thing works

It's not the long walk home that will change this heart

But the welcome I receive with every start

R: Darkness is a harsh...

Stars hide your fires

For these here are my desires

And I won't give them up to you this time around

And so I'll be found

With my stake stuck in this ground

Marking the territory of this newly impassioned soul

Hide your fires

For these here are my desires

And I won't give them up to you this time around

And so I'll be found

With my stake stuck in this ground

Marking the territory of this newly impassioned soul

And you, you've gone too far this time

You have neither reason nor rhyme

With which to take this soul that is so rightfully mine
