Sauli Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 I've learnt from the best, I suppose. Yeah, the first step has been taken successfully. You master the peculiar ways his wit travels. Next step is to post seventy-two posts like that every day, and sooner than you can notice, you are an admin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daughter.of.Rage.and.Love Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 I always looked at the line like the "liar" is looking for forgiveness in the wrong places, and looking for forgiveness that he's not going to get anywhere. Yeah I took it that way too, but the line just words it really badly! I always took the 'stone' to be a headstone, asking for forgiveness too late from someone they'd lost. Never given it any thought as to how that might fit with the rest of the lyrics mind... That actually makes it so much better! still doesn't explain what the liar is doing there and what he's asking forgiveness for, but at least it removes some of the randomness of "stone".

Sauli Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 I always thought that by using the word stone he meant an altar, or so. But probably it has an equivocal meaning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember I once liked the Forgotten..... then I sobered up Unless he's trying to apologise to a pebble he kidnapped in an attempt to raise it into a mountain. He could be using "stone" as a refrence to The Rock. Billie is looking for forgiveness from Dwayne "the Rock" Johnson as he lied to him about dieting or something.? 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purple Haze Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 I always took the 'stone' to be a headstone, asking for forgiveness too late from someone they'd lost. Never given it any thought as to how that might fit with the rest of the lyrics mind... I've always thought it to be a reference to religion. Like, he's looking for forgiveness from God, praying in front of a statue or whatever. Not the best phrased lyric of Billie's to be honest.
