This song is obviously about running away, he even mention it in the first verse.
If i ever see the morning, just like the lizard in the spring is a swedish metaphor. During the winter lizards in sweden goes in to hybernation and in the spring they awake after three or four months of darkness, almost like a reincarnation.
During the sleepless nights of anxiety he feels as the morning will never come. And if it'll come he's "going to run out in the meadow to catch the silence when it sings". Preatty obvious that the silent meadow is a place where the evil thoughts during the night reach him.
And if you think in this paradigm you'll understand the rest of the lyrics.
Feel free to question this and i will return with an answer!
