Bells On Fire

(Verse 1)
The storm's here, it's ringin' in my ear
One more shot and I won't be here
Another hurdle on the race and man I fear
I fall one more time you won't be near
All this thinkin' got me feelin' weak
Every single day has gotten me bleak
And sometimes I wanna cry for help
But the Lord's not comin' I'm on the door to hell
I'm stuck, I'm almost out of time
Man I wish my days weren't this sublime
I know we've all got a mountain to climb
But this damn road is far off the line
The lightning, the thunder, keeps ringing
I'm afraid of the storm God is bringing
Because I'm not gettin' his mercy
Please Lord I don't want you to hurt me

(Hook)
Set the bells on fire
Wait for what we desire
Look deep into the fire
Watch us grow our empire
Wait 'til the end
They ask us what we do
We march until we win
All that's left is me and you

(Verse 2)
I've tried to escape the burden
Tried to escape the torment
Tried to escape my worth and
Tried to escape what's broken
I don't know why I tried
Wasted so many hours of my life
Go through the wrong door and pay the price
And they say stars are made overnight
No wonder I'm destined for failure
Started off lyin' through my teeth
Tried out a persona that wasn't tailored
Lyin' bout everything tongue and cheek
Lied about everything
Scared to have an opinion
Didn't want people to disagree
Whether that means believing in fiction

(Hook)
Set the bells on fire
Wait for what we desire
Look deep into the fire
Watch us grow our empire
Wait 'til the end
They ask us what we do
We march until we win
All that's left is me and you

(Verse 3)
Nobody wants to be honest
It's all about bait
Mappin' out your actions so you get a good reaction
Instead of takin' some troubles off their plate
Now I'm not tellin' you to burden yourself
Just lessen the load on others
It's better if you go and help
Instead of being selfish
Everywhere there's selfish assholes
Nowhere are there not
So how the fuck can we help the world
When they just let it rot?
I'm not the best person I know
But at least I know when to not go
When someone clearly needs help
'Cause I know how they've felt

(Hook)
Set the bells on fire
Wait for what we desire
Look deep into the fire
Watch us grow our empire
Wait 'til the end
They ask us what we do
We march until we win
All that's left is me and you

(Outro)
Wait 'til the end
They ask us what we do
We march until we win
All that's left is me and you
