Siamese Dream is an undeniably personal album for songwriter Billy Corgan. As he puts it, every song is about some sort of relationship. “Quiet,” a song about his relationship with his parents, is harsh in its condemnations yet may be the most intimate on the album.

Quiet Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Quiet
I am sleeping
In here
We need a little hope
For years
I’ve been sleeping
Helpless
Couldn’t tell a soul
[Chorus]
Be ashamed
Of the mess you’ve made
My eyes never forget, you see
Behind me
[Verse 2]
Silent
Metal mercies
Castrate
Boys to the bone
Jesus
Are you listening
Up there
To anyone at all?
[Pre-Chorus]
We are the fossils
The relics of our time
We mutilate the meanings
So they’re easy to deny
[Chorus]
Be ashamed
Of the mess you’ve made
My eyes never forget, you see
Behind me
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Quiet (Quiet)
I am sleeping
Quiet (Quiet)
I am sleeping
Quiet (Shut it)
I don’t trust
You (Shut it)
I can’t hear you now
[Chorus]
Be ashamed
Of the mess you’ve made
My eyes never forget, you see
Behind me
[Outro]
Behind me the grace of falling snow
Cover up everything you know
Come save me from the awful sound
Of nothing

What did The Smashing Pumpkins say about "Quiet"?
I’ll admit I was always uncomfortable with this song at the number 2 position, seeing as there are stronger songs left in the gaggle. But it still has a nice adrena-lean to it, an icy sheen that gets over because it does ask for excessive quiet while giving none at all.
