Lyrics Bells And Whistles - Laura Stevenson

Bells And Whistles

I could’ve sworn, there was a time, when we believed that we could measure out
a line just how we wanted it, so we could live just as long as anybody ever did.
But I was wrong to lie like that, I was wrong to lie like that.
When the air was so cold that it smelled sweet on your coat, and the concrete
got swollen and roared and it swallowed you whole.
I said, «don't try to argue with it, it will take you home, it’s just another
road under the one you used to know.»
But I lied to you, I didn’t have a choice but to, I lied, I lied to you.
And I can’t hide forever and remain ashamed of it.
I can’t cover my hands and tell you not to blame me, that you are a speck in a
pile of dust.
And everything you love will turn into crumbs so stop worrying, worrying,
worrying love, stop worrying, worrisome love.
And the bells and the whistles make deafening sounds.
And you can see an ending, it’s clear as a bell.
When the sound of your headache is louder than hell, in the bend of a note
you’re alone.
In the bend of a note you’re alone, you’re alone, so don’t waste it all,
Worrisome.
