Generate meaning
1
Solemn faced
2
The village settles down
3
Undetected by the stars
4
And the hangman plays the mandolin before he goes to sleep
5
And the last thing on his mind
6
Is the Wild Eyed Boy imprisoned
7
'Neath the covered wooden shaft
8
Folds the rope
9
Into its bag
10
Blows his pipe of smolders
11
Blankets smoke into the room
12
And the day will end for some
13
As the night begins for one
14
Staring through the message in his eyes
15
Lies a solitary son
16
From the mountain called Freecloud
17
Where the eagle dare not fly
18
And the patience in his sigh
19
Gives no indication
20
For the townsmen to decide
21
So the village Dreadful yawns
22
Pronouncing gross diversion
23
As the label for the dog
24
Oh "It's the madness in his eyes"
25
As he breaks the night to cry:
26
"It's really me
27
Really you
28
And really me
29
It's so hard for us to really be
30
Really you
31
And really me
32
You'll lose me though I'm always
33
Really free"
34
And the mountain moved its eyes
35
To the world of realize
36
Where the snow had saved a place
37
For the wild eyed boy
38
From Freecloud
39
And the village Dreadful cried
40
As the rope began to rise
41
For the smile stayed on the face
42
Of the wild eyed boy
43
From Freecloud
44
And the women once proud
45
Clutched the heart of the crowd
46
As the boulders smashed down from the mountain's hand
47
And the magic in the stare
48
Of the wild eyed boy said
49
"Stop, Freecloud
50
They won't think to cut me down"
51
But the cottages fell
52
Like a playing card hell
53
And the tears on the face
54
Of the wise boy
55
Came tumbling down
56
To the rumbling ground
57
And the missionary mystic of peace/love
58
Stumbled to cry among the clouds
59
Kicking back the pebbles
60
From the Freecloud mountain
