Terror Bells

You wake up with your wild eyes

I see them and I come in close

Tell me about the nightmare ghosts

Tell me baby nose to nose

I hear the weakest breath you breathe

I hear it like a symphony

Like Mozart in a thunderstorm

You move me with a desperate warmth

I took the fall to hold your hand

It takes a fool to understand

I'm not like the vultures they come around just wanting

I've loved you from the start

My stolen golden heart

I'm not like your father, your mother

With only so much

I'm past the farthest start

I chose you in the dark night

You try me make me something small

To fit inside your first rental

But baby I will never fit

I'm there inside the worst of it

Outside of what you swear by now

The vampires in your secret house

Your fear and your enlightenment

I settled long before our kiss

I break the rules, to steal your hand

It takes a fool to understand

I'm not like the vultures they come around just wanting

I've loved you from the start

My stolen golden heart

I'm not like your father, your mother

With only so much

I'm past the farthest start

I chose you in the dark

Tell me whatever you want to tell me

I am all wrapped up right around your finger there is nothing

That can scare me off

I know every terror bell, ringing out

I'm not like the vultures they come around just wanting

I've loved you from the start

My stolen golden heart

I'm not like your father, your mother

With only so much

I'm past the farthest star

I'm not like the vultures they come around just wanting

I've loved you from the start

My stolen golden heart

I'm not like your father, your mother

With only so much

I'm past the farthest start

I chose you in the dark night

Hey!
