Ring The Bells Lyrics

It was a poetry calling
It's not a desperate sound
But a muted brass bell
Ring, ring, ring

And all who hear it may choose to ignore it
They can try to sleep, enjoy their food
Make love and come three times
But the bell rings on

It's not an ominous clank, mind you
More like a clock chime
Every minute and every hour
For every day you will ever know

Me, I dont have a bell
I only hear serene silences
And the whistling winds
On the beach walking towards sunsets
And seagulls crying like children

There's no war in my world
There's no war in my world
There's no war in my world
There's no war in my world
Only the anarchy of stillness

And someone who will never forget my name
And someone who will never forget my name
And someone who is gonna write it in their book a thousand times
And someone who is standing life long after I die

They're gonna clean my flags
Mow my lawn
Tell my stories
And take care of my pets

'Cause I feel so sad
I feel so sad
That one day, that one day

I will have to leave this place
I will have to leave this world
'Cause I really wanna help
I really wanna help
Each and every man and woman
Each and every man and woman

Find and destroy that bell
We're gonna find and destroy that bell
I think I know where all the bells are
And I'm going to help them
Find and destroy that bell

Ring
Ring
Ring
Ring
Ring
Ring
Ring
Ring them bells
Ring them bells
Ring them bells
Ring them bells
Gotta ring those bells
Ring those bells
Ring ring ring
Ring

Why does this song not have more notice? Truly a gem of Corgan's poetic ability to say the least. A sonnet for the heart
