Hey Mercedes - Bells lyrics

rate me

is this the best you have to offer us?

you genius, your hair mussed

by now you must have heard about the whirling world outside

twist a knife in it, i don't care

drain the life from it, i don't care

if you can fake it you can take them like a photograph.

with a coy sigh in time

with girlfriend waiting on the line

fine, but can't you wait to make her cry?

and they'll remember you alive

as that pain in their unkind invitation tonight

so here's your credit for the lie

that you've been hanging

and over awaiting your reply.

is this the worst you have to peddle us?

scandalous? oh spare us!

by now they must have heard about your worried world inside

pull the covers up, i don't care

call all your lovers up, i don't care

if the fates sing to your face queen of the raincloud club.

i lied when i said we were alike

your rest friend waiting on the line

to compliment your new shine

i can hardly stand to stand here now

to be your stare to admit to all

the pain that you've been painting

and over and i can't bear to stay.

so come on and sing along!

aren't we bridges aren't we bells?

aren't we chuckling through our curls?

up to heaven and down to hell

say it again pal, aren't we bells?

aren't we statues in a story

where we choose our goals of glory

over family and over friends

say it again and again.

aren't we bridges aren't we bells?

aren't we sighing in our cells?

up to heaven and down to hell

say it again pal, aren't we bells?

aren't we bells?
