Anthem

The birds they sang At the break of day Start again I heard them say Do not dwell on what Has passed away Or what is yet to be Ah the wars they will Be fought again The holy dove She will be caught again Bought and sold And sold and bought again The dove is never free So ring the bells that still can ring Forget your perfect offering There is a crack, a crack in everything That's how the light gets in We asked for signs The signs were sent: The birth betrayed The marriage spent Ah the widowhood Of every government Signs for all to see I can't run no more With that lawless crowd While the killers in high places Sing their prayers out loud Oh they've summoned up, summoned up A thundercloud And they're going to hear from me So ring the bells that still can ring Forget your perfect offering There is a crack, a crack in everything That's how the light gets in You can add up the parts There is no sum You can strike up the march There is no drum Every heart, every heart To love will come But like a refugee So ring the bells that still can ring Forget your perfect offering There is a crack, a crack in everything That's how the light gets in How the light gets in There is a crack, a crack in everything That's how the light gets in How the light gets in How the light gets in
