The Bell
I took a walk out of Jamison square
I was looking for some sign of life
I could see my breath as it mixed with the air
And the wind bit my skin like a knife
It's 3am all the drunks have gone home
it's just me and the moon in the sky
I still walk the streets, yes i walk them alone
And they've given up asking me why
'Cuz I just told them
I'd be fine
I'd go to sleep when
My vital signs
Are no more
Are no more
The sun's coming up, and they say all is well
But the well that they speak of is dry
Then I heard a voice ringing clear as a bell
And the bell shook the sleep from my eyes
His words showed the way and the truth and the life
To take place of this lust, and these lies, and this knife
And I could live free from the Demon's inside
In the freedom that comes when you realize
That you're loved
Now I'll tell them
How I'm fine
I'll go to sleep when
Vital signs
Are no more
