Proud and Lonely
Proud and Lonely: Echoes of Solitude in Nature's Embrace
Lyrics
I hear those bells hollerin' your name
I perceive the sound of bells calling out your name
Cold dark hills call for rain
The cold and dark hills are signaling the approach of rain
Echoes fall
There are echoes resounding in the environment
Singing back to me this hollow refrain
A hollow refrain is being sung back to me
Proud and lonely
Feeling a sense of pride and loneliness
Fog is resting lower
Fog is settling at a lower level
And the trees are nearly gone
The trees are almost disappearing
Lay down, lay down, lay down, lay down, lay down
Repeated encouragement to lay down
Lay down, lay down, lay down, lay down, lay down
Further repetition, emphasizing the need to rest
Lay down those heavy bones you carry with you
Encouragement to release the burdensome weight you carry
Won't you settle down
An appeal for you to settle down
Twilight woods quiet as a graveyard
The woods in the twilight are as quiet as a graveyard
Well-worn paths haven't been the same
Paths that were once familiar have changed
Strangling vines cover where I carved my name
My carved name is now covered by strangling vines
Proud and lonely
Expressing a combination of pride and loneliness
Aching in my back
Feeling an ache in the back
And pins and needles in my toes
Experiencing pins and needles in the toes
Lay down, lay down, lay down, lay down, lay down
Repeated encouragement to lay down, possibly to find relief
Lay down, lay down, lay down, lay down, lay down
Continued emphasis on the need to rest and find solace
Lay down those heavy bones you carry with you
Encouragement to release the heavy burdens carried
Won't you settle down
An appeal for you to settle down and find peace
Lay down, lay down, lay down, lay down, lay down
Repeated encouragement to lay down, suggesting it's a crucial action
Lay down, lay down, lay down, lay down, lay down
Further repetition, reinforcing the importance of rest
Lay down those heavy bones you carry with you
Encouragement to release the heavy burdens carried
Won't you settle down
An appeal for you to settle down and find peace
Lay down, lay down, lay down, lay down, lay down
Repeated encouragement to lay down, emphasizing the need for rest
Lay down, lay down, lay down, lay down, lay down
Continued emphasis on the importance of finding solace
Lay down those heavy bones you carry with you
Encouragement to release the heavy burdens carried
Won't you settle down
An appeal for you to settle down and find peace
