Janis Ian Breaking Silence Lyrics

Breaking Silence Lyrics

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
