The Bells Are Ringing For You Now

Lyrics

The bells are ringing for you now
 The beast has turned against the plow
 You can run, but you can't escape the sound
 Or the roar of your kingdom crashing down
 You can't hide in halls of ivory
 Or deny the children left to feed
 What will sound at first like tambourines
 Is the sound of the death squad you hear ring
 On a hill, there's a man who knows a door
 And it's battered by the wind
 And he's seen it down before
 But he's happy to go in
 And he's crippled as he climbs
 For the people he must feed
 To the promises he keeps
 When he reaches the belfry
 Let it chime, and he chimes to the wind
 The bells are ringing for you now
 And the beasts are running down the streets now
 Every man and woman have their price
 You can't win the bounty's set too high
 You got dreams you share with me, my love
 You got dreams, but you also got rust
 And you got time, lost of time for us
 The bells are ringing for you now
 What do you see when you lie awake and think
 And the image on the wall
 Where you threw your last drink
 Where the messages are scrawled
 For Ethiopia, and Cambodia
 For El Salvador, Hiroshima, mon amour
 And they chime
 And they chime, in the wind
 When it burns!
 The bells are ringing for you now
 The bells are ringing for you now
 The bells are ringing for you now
 The bells are ringing for you now
 The bells are ringing for you now
 The bells are ringing for you now
 The bells are ringing for you now
 The bells are ringing for you now
