We're digging in the dirt for the western world,
For the twinkle in the eye, for the love of the girl,
We do it for the fortune and we do it for the fame,
But it only brings us sorrow, and it only brings us shame.
Blood on the Stone, Blood on the Stone,
Shattered dreams and broken bones
Blood on the Stone, Blood on the Stone,
Shattered lives and broken homes
Digging in the pits with the sun in my eye,
Just the other day I watched a man die,
He put his hand in his pocket and they shot him in the back
They the told the cops it was a heart attack
Blood on the Stone, Blood on the Stone,
Shattered dreams and broken bones
Blood on the Stone, Blood on the Stone,
Shattered lives and broken homes
Was it for the blood? Or was it for the money?
Only the killer knows why.
He puts his guns on the ground and he falls on to his knees
Drops his head and starts to cry...
Blood on the Stone, Blood on the Stone,
Shattered dreams and broken bones
Blood on the Stone, Blood on the Stone,
Shattered lives and broken homes
What are we fighting for?
What are we fighting for?
I'm on the streets of New York and I'm trying to find the man,
I got the world in my pocket, and I got blood on my hands,
Well it sparkles and shines and it's all that I own,
And the jeweler don't care if there's blood on the stone
Blood on the Stone, Blood on the Stone,
Shattered dreams and broken bones
Blood on the Stone, Blood on the Stone,
Shattered lives and broken homes
What is the fighting for?
Is it a symbol of love?
What is the killing for?
Is it a symbol of love?
What is the dying for... ?
Is it a symbol of love? [break]
A symbol of love!
