The Bell

[Verse 1]
I can’t keep dwelling upon
Making sense of it all

My life passed in a blink
Of an eye, almost as if
Time was never a friend of mine
Church bells, they ring goodbye

[Verse 2]
Shadow of my hope
Will rise above
Fly now my soul, fly
Far from home

I can’t keep dwelling upon
Making sense of it all

[Pre-Chorus]
People come and then go
Like waters sanding the stones
As time steals your memories
And bells ring for me

On my grave one shall behold
Daisies and marigolds
As I turn into memory
And bells ring for me

[Chorus]
Time
(People come and then go)
Takes its toll
(Like waters sanding the stones)
I should go
(As time steals your memories)
It’s my turn
(And bells ring for me)

[Verse 3]
My bed of flowers and moss
Cradles pieces of my bones
So here I will lie
I don’t think I’ll ever miss my life
Though I haven’t lived for too long
But I have discovered
Grief and nature of human pain, so
I am relieved in grave

[Chorus]
Time
Takes its toll
I should go
It’s my turn
(But you are alive)
Time
(People come and then go)
Takes its toll
(They disappear and you are alone)
I should go
(In this prison of your life)
It’s my turn
(And bell rings for my heart)
