Stubborn Beast Lyrics - Jolie Holland

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
