Before the bells

Letra

Aaaaaaayyyyy mi pena Ayyyyyyyyyyyy mi penita Before the bells remember how to ring, Before the night is told what it should bring, We sit with what we cannot make behave, A breath between the living and the brave, Time loosens what it came to claim, Time loosens what it came to claim. Before the names are spoken into stone, Before the body learns to stand alone, The hands forget the shape of every fight, The heart unknots itself without a light, No victory, no hidden plan, Just being here the best we can. Before the morning asks us to be loud, Before the world decides what’s allowed, There is a warmth that doesn’t ask for proof, A truth that never learned to raise a roof, Not hope, not faith, not something new, Just staying where the breath stays true. Before the bells remember how to ring, Before the night is told what it should bring, We sit with what we cannot make behave, A breath between the living and the brave, Time loosens what it came to claim, Time loosens what it came to claim. Before the names are spoken into stone, Before the body learns to stand alone, The hands forget the shape of every fight, The heart unknots itself without a light, No victory, no hidden plan, Just being here the best we can. Before the morning asks us to be loud, Before the world decides what’s allowed, There is a warmth that doesn’t ask for proof, A truth that never learned to raise a roof, Not hope, not faith, not something new, Just staying where the breath stays true.
