Lyrics: Ring A Bell
( suggested by rizuka at a former icontest of mine)
You must use at least three consecutive words from the following song. It is not necessary to maintain punctuation/letter casing and you may substitue alternate characters for words where appropriate (e.g. and with &) and vice versa. You are not allowed to incorporate any external text with the exception of tinytext/brushes that are purely decorative and not legible. Don't forget to proofread your entry.
Ring A Bell
Bonnie Pink
Reaching up for no man's land
To take a breath and take a chance
I walk a thousand nights to change the world
Where to go? When to stop?
Who to trust? What to say?
Found them all, just need someone to share
It's now in the dusk every day to carry one
Ain't so strong, I ain't so strong to go on
Living in the past is not the way to live
I wish you could hear me say that I miss you
[Chorus]
Why were we there back to back?
Why were we there face to face?
I must be the light when you're in the dark
If you lose me somewhere, and your tears are in the air
I will ring a bell until you feel me by your side
Looking up into the sky, looking for the reason
Why I'm here, and why you can't be here
Who's to hate? Who's to blame?
Who's to hurt? Who's to love?
Who decides? Why can't we be the same?
Try to believe walking down the lonesome road
Ain't so far, I ain't so far from you
Staying the way you are meant solitude
I wish you were here and shook off my fear
[Chorus]
What has been in the mix too long?
Where's the peace when you're at war?
Heads or tails, you and I
Light and dark, ups and downs
What has been in the middle? What's there to divide us?
If you're hurt, cry and say "Can't you see you're my other half?"
[Chorus]
