Chimes of Freedom |
Far between sundown’s finish |
An' midnights broken toll |
We ducked inside the doorway, thunder crashing |
As majestic bells of bolts |
Struck shadows in the sound |
Seeming to be the chimes of freedom flashing |
Flashing for the warriors whose strength is not to fight |
Flashing for the refugees on the unarmed road of flight |
An' for each an' every underdog soldier in the night |
An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing |
Even though a cloud’s white curtain |
In a far-off corner flashed |
An' the hypnotic splattered mist Was slowly lifting |
Electric light still struck like arrows, fired but for the ones |
Condemned to drift or else be kept from drifting |
Tolling for the searching ones, on their speechless, seeking trail |
For the lonesome-hearted lovers with too personal a tale |
An' for each unharmful, gentle soul misplaced inside a jail |
An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing |
Starry-eyed an' laughing as I recall when we were caught |
Trapped by no track of hours for they hanged suspended |
As we listened one last time an' we watched with one last look |
Spellbound an' swallowed 'til the tolling ended |
Tolling for the aching ones whose wounds cannot be nursed |
For the countless confused, accused, misused, strung-out ones an' worse |
An' for every hung-up person in the whole wide universe |
An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing |
