Ten Bells Lyrics

F.a.q. Ten Bells

commercial street leads to dead end

x marks the spot under ten bells

the atmosphere surrounds spitalfields

throws silhouettes in the mind of those who live here




in the shadow of christ church you can hear




next to hawksmoor, at number eighty-four

stand outside the entrance and close the door

kneel and kiss the footsteps of mary jane kelly

angels were crying when the devil caught dark annie




in the shadow of christ church you can hear




polly was the first, stride and eddowes had to follow

fate chose them well, showed no sorrow

and the night he took over in ..:NAMESPACE PREFIX = ST1
/>london, east end

the world forever changed in fall eighteen eighty-eight




in the shadow of christ church you can hear

and in the shadow of christ church you still can hear

ten bells are ringing




ten bells - hear them ring

call them victims, call it sin

cut your voice, relief is what i bring

where you end is where i begin




ten bells - hear them sing

call them victims, call it sin

cut your voice and play the strings

where you end is where i begin
