I have walked all alone On these streets I call home Streets of hope, streets of fear Through the sidewalk cracks time disappears I was lost, on my knees On the eve of defeat As I choked back the tears There's a silent scream no one could hear So far away from everything you know is true Something inside that makes you do what you got to do Ring them bells, ring them loud Let them ring here and now Just reach out and ring the bells of freedom When your world's crashing down Like you're lost every round Stand your ground And ring the bells of freedom Up the steps of the church Through the fields and the dirt In the dark I have seen That the sun still shines for the one who believes So far away So full of doubt and needing proof Just close your eyes and hear the sounds inside of you Ring them bells, ring them loud Let them ring here and now Just reach out and ring the bells of freedom When your world's comes crashing down Like you've lost every round Stand your ground And ring the bells of freedom Ring them bells, ring them loud Let them ring here and now Just reach out and ring the bells of freedom Yeah, when your world comes crashing down Like you've lost every round Stand your ground and ring the bells of freedom Ring them bells, ring them loud Let them ring here and now Just reach out and ring the bells of freedom
