Dark Bells


I am summoned by the sunlight
I am beckoned to the hunt
Gossip idly with the Bell witch
As she photographs her brunch
I have been born again
Each morning when I rise
Buy coffee or buy gin
With the grave good coins from your eyes

Innocence is relative
Overeager eyes on indifferent kids again

(If it's lukewarm then let it in)

Saw a stranger on the sidewalk
Summoning a swarm of bees
With a child upon his shoulders
And new eschatology
I have been born again
Each moment when I speak
From rooftops or from cliffs
So useful, so obscene

Innocence is relative
Overeager eyes on indifferent kids
Heaven sent and sixty grit
I can feel your kiss like a phantom limb again

(If it's lukewarm then let it in)
(If it's lukewarm then let it in)
(If it's lukewarm then let it in)

You were always on my side
Dark bells, see hell in a new light
You were always on my side
Dark bells, faith fiction in realtime

You were always on my side
Dark bells, see hell in a new light
You were always on my side
Dark bells, faith fiction in realtime

You were always on my side
Dark bells, see hell in a new light
You were always on my side
Dark bells, faith fiction in realtime

Innocence is relative
Overeager eyes on indifferent kids
Heaven sent and sixty grit
I can feel your kiss like a phantom limb again
