Carol Of The Bell(Tower)s (2021 Version Bonus Track)

(album: A Very P86 Christmas - 2015)

Hark how the bells
Sweet silver bells
All seem to say
Throw cares away
Towers appear
Different this year
Something has changed
Songs are so strange

Belltowers ring
Gaze as they sing
Songs ushering
End of all things
Oh how they pound
Raising the sound
O'er hill and dale
Telling their tale

Men market fear
War drawing near
Lines being drawn
Red is the dawn
Pour out the bowl
Harvest the soul
Rivers of blood
New World to come

(Very very very last Christmas)

Belltowers echo through turret and spire
Signal the imminent, powers conspire
Artillery melodies, symbols converge
Our threadbare hopes on the wire

Belltowers ring
Gaze as they sing
Songs ushering
End of all things
Oh how they pound
Raising the sound
O'er hill and dale
Telling their tale

Men market fear
War drawing near
Lines being drawn
Red is the dawn
Pour out the bowl
Harvest the soul
Rivers of blood
New World to come

Belltowers ring
Gaze as they sing
Songs ushering (What if this was)
The end of all things (The very, very, very last...)

(The spirit and the bride say come)
Spirit and the bride say come (come, come)

Spirit and the bride say come
(Spirit and the bride say come)
Spirit and the bride say come

What if this was the very, very, very last Christmas?
