Villagers The Bell song lyrics

There is a sleeping dog

Under this dialogue

Obedient only to rhyme

And if I could beckon her

If I could find the words

All they would be is lies

Tell me why this failure is making you smile

Then off goes the bell ringing through my head

Signifies that all's been said

This failure is making you smile

Off goes the bell ringing through my head

There is a passenger

In every useless word

That can never be twisted or sold

Center of my skin

The body of discipline

It must be a million years old

I've been told you're offering more than you owe

Then off goes the bell ringing through my head

Signifies that all's been said

You're offering more than you owe

Off goes the bell ringing through my head

Then off goes the bell ringing through my head

Signifies that all's been said

Off goes the bell ringing through my head

Then off goes the bell ringing through my head

Signifies that all's been said

Off goes the bell ringing through my head
