Chimes of Freedom Lyrics

Far between the sundown's finish
An' midnight's broken toll
We ducked inside the doorway
Thunder crashing
As majestic bells of bolts struck
Shadows in the sounds
Seeming to be the chimes of freedom flashing

Flashing for the warriors whose strength
Is not to fight
Flashing for the refugees on the
Unarmed road of flight
And for each and every underdog
Soldier in the night and we gazed upon the
Chimes of freedom flashing

Even though a cloud's white curtain in
A far off corner flashed
And the hypnotic splattered mist
Was slowly lifting
Electric light still struck like arrows
Fired but for the ones
Condemned to drift or else
Be kept from drifting
Tolling for the searching ones
On their speechless, seeking trail
For the lonesome hearted lovers with
Too personal a tale and for each unharmful
Gentle soul misplaced inside a jail
And we gazed upon the
Chimes of freedom flashing

Through the mad mystic hammering of
The wild ripping hail
The sky cracked it's poems in naked wonder
That the clinging of the church bells
Blew far into the breeze
Leaving only bells of lightning
And it's thunder

Tolling for the aching ones whose
Wounds cannot be nursed
For the countless confused, accused, misused
Strung out ones and worse
And for every hung up person
In the whole wide universe
And we gazed upon the
Chimes of freedom flashing
