Quiet, the chill air gives peace,

A peace that echoes into the night

Only to be lost in the endless fog and shadows.

But all stillness is broken by the tolling of the church's bells…

As the church bells toll

The killer stalks his prey,

As the church bells toll

The whore stands on her corner,

As the church bells toll

The thief picks the lock,

As the church bells toll

The beggar is left to starve,

As the church bells toll

The child is sobbing,

As the church bells toll

The sick are dying.
