Glockenspiel Song Lyrics

We'll all start a fire
If the bells don't ring in our home town
They're just cheats and liars
They will serve you well

Oh
Oh, are we so alike?
Are we so alike?
So
So
So
So

Daylight breaks and I'm in your arms again
A tiger waiting to be tamed
We're beat down fingers and we're beat down toes
And we're beat down singers in the beat down halls
But till time came back twice around

Oh
Are we so alike?
So
So
So

Oh this town, it's so electric
Since I got the feeling I can't shut down
Oh this town, it's so electric
Since I got the feeling I can't shut down
Oh this town, it's so electric
Since I got the feeling I can't shut down
(We are a mess, we are failures and we love it)
Oh this town, it's so electric
Since I got the feeling I can't shut down
(We are a mess, we are failures and we love it)
Oh this town, it's so electric
Since I got the feeling I can't shut down
We are a Mess!

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
