You met him at some temple
Where they take your clothes at the door
He was just a numberless man in a chair
Who'd just come back from the war
And you wrap up his tired face in your hair
And he hands you the apple core
Then he touches your lips now so suddenly bare
Of all the kisses we put on some time before
And he gave you a German Shepherd to walk
With a collar of leather and nails
And he never once made you explain or talk
About all of the little details
Such as who had a word and who had a rock
And who had you through the mails
Now your love is a secret all over the block
And it never stops not even when your master fails
Can allude to lapidation (killing people by throwing stones and rocks at them) or the Biblical quote (from Matthew 7:9): 
 Which of you, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? 
 The word is the opposite of the rock, communication versus aggression.
