DISCOGRAPHY - "CORNERSTONE" - LYRICS

Cornerstone
R. X. Heyman

Walking through the town
Was a building we used to pass each day
The oldest one around
All the walls were worn, and the trim turned gray

Thought I'd left for good
But now here I am on this run-down train
The same old neighborhood
But that building's gone, not a thing remains
Except for the cornerstone

And it's all I've had
And it's all I've known
And the leaves pile high
On the cornerstone

Somerset is dead
Once the heart of town, now a vacant core
And written by its head
On a granite tomb, 1894
Upon the cornerstone

And it's all I've had
And it's all I've known
And the snow piles high
On the cornerstone

Some things in this world
We rely upon them to stay the same
And one day when you're old
You will realize as you search in vain
For that cornerstone
