Bells Lyrics

Bells lyrics

is this the best you have to offer us? 
you genius, your hair mussed 
by now you must have heard about the whirling world outside 
twist a knife in it, i don`t care 
drain the life from it, i don`t care 
if you can fake it you can take them like a photograph. 

with a coy sigh in time 
with girlfriend waiting on the line 
fine, but can`t you wait to make her cry? 
and they`ll remember you alive 
as that pain in their unkind invitation tonight 
so here`s your credit for the lie 
that you`ve been hanging 
and over awaiting your reply. 

is this the worst you have to peddle us? 
scandalous? oh spare us! 
by now they must have heard about your worried world inside 
pull the covers up, i don`t care 
call all your lovers up, i don`t care 
if the fates sing to your face queen of the raincloud club. 

i lied when i said we were alike 
your rest friend waiting on the line 
to compliment your new shine 
i can hardly stand to stand here now 
to be your stare to admit to all 
the pain that you`ve been painting 
and over and i can`t bear to stay. 

so come on and sing along! 
aren`t we bridges aren`t we bells? 
aren`t we chuckling through our curls? 
up to heaven and down to hell 
say it again pal, aren`t we bells? 

aren`t we statues in a story 
where we choose our goals of glory 
over family and over friends 
say it again and again. 

aren`t we bridges aren`t we bells? 
aren`t we sighing in our cells? 
up to heaven and down to hell 
say it again pal, aren`t we bells? 
aren`t we bells?
