Discover the story of the song > Stoney End – laura nyro

The song is about a woman who was born into a life of love and religion. She worked hard and was raised to follow the teachings of Jesus, but eventually started questioning what she was taught. She remembers a past relationship that ended badly and now feels like her soul is raging. She wants to start over and be comforted like a child by her mother. The "stoney end" represents a place she never wanted to go, but feels like she's now been forced to.
