Hear the Bells

Lyrics

[Spoken] We call this a bamboo slit drum... [Verse 1] Time is of the essence, my heart drunk to your presence Every thought, fear and temptation'll make up my confession And I'm searching for a way To temper all this burning inside Never who I was, never what I wanna be But I am looking in your eyes and I'm shaken by what I see It's a never ending world of possibility, and I know [Pre-Chorus] You got me frozen, looking out the window Waiting for the morning light Like a flower burning in the desert Fighting against my pride Ringing and ringing and ringing and ringing in my head Closer and closer and louder and louder and louder [Chorus] Initiation day, packed up and on my way Can you hear the bells? There's a lot at stake and I'm not feeling brave 'Cause I can hear the bells [Post-Chorus] (Vocalising) [Verse 2] Feeling the vibrations of every decision And I'm hoping that you'll break this invisible division But it's never who I was, not what I wanna be But I am Initiation comes with these complications I'm confused about the number of changes that it's bringing And I tremble at the thought, the possibility of unknown [Pre-Chorus] You got me frozen, looking out the window Waiting for the morning light Like a flower burning in the desert Fighting against my pride Ringing and ringing and ringing and ringing in my head Closer and closer and louder and louder and louder now [Chorus] Initiation day, packed up and on my way Can you hear the bells? There's a lot at stake and I'm not feeling brave 'Cause I can hear the bells [Post-Chorus] (Vocalising) [Outro] (Vocalising)
