For Whom The Bell Tolls [”One” single] Lyrics

Dallas, you guys, you have some arms out there?
Thanks!
Let me see them!
Hey hey hey

This one's from the album "Ride The Lightning," maybe you can sing along
This one entitled "For Whom The Bell Tolls"

[Verse 1]
Make his fight on the hill in the early day
Constant chill deep inside
Shouting gun, on they run through the endless grey
On the fight, for they're right, yes, but who's to say?
For a hill, men would kill, why? They do not know
Stiffened wounds test their pride
Men of five still alive through the raging glow
Gone insane from the pain that they surely know

[Chorus]
For whom the bell tolls
Time marches on
Sing it, Dallas!
[Crowd responds]
Fuck yeah!

[Verse 2]
Take a look to the sky just before you die
It's the last time you will
Blackened roar, massive roar fills the crumbling sky
Shattered goal fill his soul with a ruthless cry
Stranger now are his eyes to this mystery
Hears the silence so loud
Crack of dawn, all is gone except the will to be
Now they see who will be, blinded eyes to see
[Chorus]
For whom the bell tolls
Time marches on
Yeah!

[Outro]
