Breaking Silence (Live) - Janis Ian

Breaking Silence

Come into my solitude

tho i weary be

COme into my tenderness

dream along with me

listen to the wispers sing

listen to the singers shout

come into my solitude

me and my big mouth

thoughts unspoken thoughts unsaid

lies of hearth and home

children broken on the bed and left to lie alone

things you talk around

scum you chock on down

come into my solitude

step on sacred ground

we were speaking

of values and violence

breaking silence

fathers who are lovers to the daughters that they own

mothers who dont leave a child in a single saftey zone

people so unhinged, that death is much to kind

come into my solitude, step over that line

thought i was the only one

thought i was the only one

thought i was the only

thought i was the only

only one

breaking silence

come into my solitude

welcome to the wheel

come into this wonderland

of wounds that will not heal

walls that do not speak

steps that do not sound

come into my solitude

burn this building down
