 x2
Who  you led you to this hiding place
 This lightning thread-spun silver tunnels
 Red bells beckon you to ride
 hand print on the driver's  side
it  looks a lot like engine oil
 and tastes  like being poor and small
 and popsicles  in summer
Deep  red bells
Deep  as I've been done
Deep  red bells
Deep  as I've been done
 It always  has to come to this
 The red bells ring this tragic hour
 We've lost sight of the overpass
 The daylight won't remember that
The  speckled fawns grazed 'round your bones
 Who took  the time to fold you clothes
 And shook  the valley of the shadow
Deep  red bells
Deep  as I've been done
Deep  red bells
Deep  as I've been done
 Where does this mean world cast its cold  eye?
 Who's left to suffer long about you
 Does your soul  cast about like an old paper bag
 Past empty lots life and early graves
 But those  like you who lost there way
Murdered  on the interstate
While  the red bells rang like thunder
Oh,  deep red  bells
Oh,  deep as I've been  done
Deep  red bells
Deep  as I've been done
