Bells

[Verse 1]

Like a potted plant

Too big for its home

I'll take what I'm given

But I won't make any growth

I am perfectly still

Hurtling through time

Wilted on the sill

Waiting for these bells to chime

[Chorus]

You should know better

With all that you've seen

Everybody thinks that

It never happened to me

Tried to stop the train but it wasn't enough

So I wrote all these songs but it wasn't enough

Scowling in my deathbed

Because it wasn't ever enough

[Verse 2]

My growing neuroses

My dwindling friends

I can't see the futurе

But I know how it ends

Days rushing by you

Like leavеs in the fall

And while the world's fading to black

You couldn't make time to call?

[Chorus]

I should know better

Who I'd turn into

No one ever thinks that

It'll happen to you

Held your frail hands but it wasn't enough

May as well stop the sun but it wasn't enough

Scowling at me in my dreams

Because it wasn't ever enough

[Outro]

My growing neuroses

My dwindling friends

I can't see the future

We all know how it ends
