Hear The Bells
Naomi Scott Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Time is of the essence, my heart drum to your presence
Every thought, fear and temptation'll make up my confession
And I'm searching for a way
To temper while it's burning inside

Never who I was, never what I wanna be
But I am looking in your eyes and I'm shaken by what I see
It's a never ending world of possibility, and I know

You got me fast, I'm looking out the window
Waiting for the morning light
Like a flower burning in the desert
Waiting against my pride
Ringing and ringing and ringing in my head
Closer and closer and louder and louder and louder

Initiation day, packed up and on my way
Can you hear the bells
There's a lot at stake and I'm not feeling brave
'Cause I can hear the bells
Oh ohh ohh ohh
Oh ohh ohh ohh

Feeling the vibrations of every decision
And I'm hoping that you'll break this invisible division
But it's never who I was, not what I wanna be
But I am

Initiation comes with these complications
I'm confused about the number of changes that it's bringing
And I tremble at the thought, the possibility of unknown

You got me fast, I'm looking out the window
Waiting for the morning light
Like a flower burning in the desert
Waiting against my pride
Ringing and ringing and ringing in my head
Closer and closer and louder and louder and louder

Initiation day, packed up and on my way
Can you hear the bells
There's a lot at stake and I'm not feeling brave
'Cause I can hear the bells
Oh ohh ohh ohh
Oh ohh ohh ohh

Seriously, people need more songs of Naomi!! 💓💓💓👌

@audreychristine3199

Uk

@anshika13911

Yep

@urockit2011

She makes me angry. She makes me angry that less talented people get so much of the musical audience. Meanwhile, she's literally one of the most talented artists I've ever heard in this decade. I hope she makes a full album. I just bought the EP (I'm pretty late in the game), and it is a gateway drug to her style of music. I'm hooked.

@turtleislandlac1490

@Merdicano

Thank God, I found her again! At least YouTube's Recommendation is working good in 2019.
I thought she's a princess but she's also a real Queen.
