The direction of the eye
So misleading
The defection of the soul
Nauseously quick
I don't question
Our existence
I just question
Our modern needs

I will walk, with my hands bound
I will walk, with my face blood
I will walk, with my shadow flag
Into your garden
Garden of stone

After all is done
And we're still alone
I won't be taken
Yet I'll go

With my hands bound
I will walk, with my face blood
I will walk, with my shadow flag
Into your garden
Garden of stone

I don't show
I don't share
I don't need
What you have to give, yeah

I will walk, with my hands bound
I will walk, with my face blood
I will walk, with my shadow flag
Into your garden
Garden of
I will walk, with my hands bound
I will walk, into your garden
Garden of stone
I don't know
I don't care
I don't need you for me to live

    I don't see the "garden of stone" as a cemetary. I think it means that where there should be growth and nature, there is conformity, which makes people like stone. By walking through the garden, he is making his own choice and defying the conformity.
