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
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
