The Once – Anthem Lyrics
Artist: The Once
Song: Anthem
The birds they sing, at the break of day
Start again, I heard them say
Don’t dwell, on what is passed away
Or what is yet to be
Oh the wars, they will be fought again
The holy dove, she will be caught again
Bought and sold, and bought again
The dove is never free
Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That’s how the light gets in
We asked for signs, the signs were sent
The birth betrayed, the marriage spent
The widowhood, of every government
Signs for all to see
I can’t run no more, with this lawless crowd
While the killers in high places say their prayers out loud
And they’ve summoned, they’ve summoned up a thundercloud
And they’re gonna to hear from me
Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That’s how the light gets in
You can add up the parts, but you won’t have the sum
You can strike up the march, there is no drum
Every heart, every heart, to love will come
But like a refugee
Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That’s how the light gets in
Oh!
Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That’s how the light gets in
That’s how the light gets in
That’s how the light gets in
That’s how the light
Gets
In
