Stubborn Beast Lyrics

Stubborn Beast lyrics

My sullen songs have taken me far down this darkened road

I have seen the campfires burning, I have heard the drunkards howl

I'm silent in my solitude, I'm quiet as a thief

I have stolen all these hours, I have gotten no relief



My crazy dreams and tragedies have taken me for a ride

But I can see strange glory on the other side

Oh, this has been my misery and the source of my pride

But all along I'm thinking that I've been taken for a ride



Why don't you take me when I'm willing?

Why don't you take me when I'm willing?



But like a stubborn beast when the barn is on fire

I might resist you when you try to save my life

I might resist you when you try to save my life

When the flames rise around us and I can't see the door

This is still my home and it has never burned before



Oh, this is where I've taken my solace and my peace

The walls are caving in but I am still a stubborn beast



Why don't you take me when I'm?

Why don't you take me when I'm willing?
