"Belltown" lyrics - DELIVERANCE

By day, I hear the screams of a compromising scene.
Has the wailing wall ridden the waves back through time?
What kind of idea has been planted in the mind,
Would stealing babies and killing your folks earn you spots on prime time?

Do we go, one more time?
Here we go.

And I ask, "Is this right?", to anyone who will hear.
Is it something I missed or was not told?
...and life goes on in Belltown.

The needle finds its way into Daddy's arm to stay, while the kids are thrown to the night and told to play.
The sirens sound, piercing the night...shots' echoes lead me to the sight.
A dead body...nothing left but a proud punk saying, "This is my life".

Do we go, one more time?
Here we go.

And I ask, "Is this right?", to anyone who will hear.
Is it something I missed or was not told?
...and life goes on in Belltown.
...and life goes on in Belltown.

[Lead Solo]

Ring the bells in Belltown.
Another soul's thrown away.
Ring the bells in Belltown.
Should we cry, or should we pray?

Ring the bells in Belltown, for the children born today.
Ring the bells in Belltown, for the price they'll have to pay.

Ring the bells in Belltown...another dead tonight.
Ring the bells in Belltown.
Ask God to make it right.

Ring the bells. (1[4x]s)
Ring the bells in Belltown.
