Quiet

LyricsInformation
Quiet, I am sleeping
In here
We need a little hope
For years, I've been sleeping
Helpless
Couldn't tell a soul
Be ashamed (of) the mess you've made
My eyes never forget, you see
Behind me
Silent, metal mercies castrate boys to the bone
Jesus, are you listening?
Up there
To anyone at all
We are the fossils
The relics of our time
We mutilate the meanings
So they're easy to deny
Be ashamed (of) the mess you've made
My eyes never forget, you see
Behind me
Quiet, I am sleeping
Quiet, I am sleeping
Quiet, I don't trust you
I can't hear you at all
Be ashamed (of) the mess you've made
My eyes never forget, you see
Behind me
Behind the grace of falling snow
Cover up everything you know
Come save me from the awful sound
Of nothing

Billy Corgan: (Pulse 1993)

    "...a lot of what sounds like her on this album is really me. On 'Quiet,' where there's that ghostly kind of high voice , that was me."
