There used to be a light on in the attic in the day
I hear that late at night it can be seen flickering away
At yesterdays gone by without a word
And how tomorrows come like little birds
They sing me godforsaken songs that get stuck in my ears
‘Til I can’t hear.
I hear there is a bell way down beneath the basement floor
And that sometimes it shines but nobody listens anymore
There’s no time for singing songs of liberty
When each night is a new invading army
They overload their silencers and point them straight at me
‘Til I can’t see.
