If I've heard them once

I've heard them a thousand times before

I'm in danger of repeating myself

But I don't care anymore

Sleepless nights and world weary days

I live without you

But life goes on regardless

I don't know what to do



Chorus

The bells keep ringing

The doors keep slamming

You don't understand

But the doors keep slamming

For whom the bells toll



If I put a shell up to my ear

I can hear the sea

Even though I've tried to erase

That memory

You could be wiped up on

Some faraway beach

But all I know and feel is

You're still out of reach



Chorus



Switch out the light, and go to bed

Switch out the light, and go to bed
