Generate meaning
1
My silent songs have taken me
2
far down this darkened road.
3
I have seen camp fires burning,
4
I have heard the drunkard's howl
5
Oh, I'm silent in my solitude.
6
I'm quiet as a thief.
7
I have stolen all these hours,
8
I have gotten no relief
9
My crazy dreams and tragedies
10
have taken me for a ride.
11
But I can see strange glory
12
on the other side.
13
Oh, this has been my misery
14
and the source of my pride.
15
But all along I'm thinking
16
that I've been taken for a ride
17
Why don't you take me when I am willing?
18
Why don't you take me when I am willing?
19
But like a stubborn beast
20
when the barn is on fire
21
I might resist you
22
when you try to save my life
23
I might resist you
24
when you try to save my life.
25
When the flames burn around us
26
and I can see the door.
27
This is still my home
28
and it has never burned before.
29
Oh, this is where I've taken
30
my solace and my peace.
31
the walls are caving in,
32
but I am still a stubborn beast.
33
Why don't you take me when I am willing?
34
Why don't you take me when I am willing?
