Brandi Carlile - Raise Hell lyrics

rate me

I've been down with a broken heart

Since the day I learned to speak.

The devil gave me a crooked start

When he gave me crooked feet.

But Gabriel don came to me

And kissed me in my sleep,

And I'll be singing like and angel

Until I'm six feet deep.

I found myself an omen and I tattoed on a sign

I set my mind to wandering and I walk a broken line.

You have a mind to keep me quiet

And although you can try,

Better men have hit their knees

And bigger men have died.

I'm gonna raise, raise hell

There's a story no one tells

You gotta raise, raise hell

Go on and ring that bell

You came upon a lightning strike

And eyes of bright clear blue

I took a tie from around my neck

And gave my heart to you.

I sent my love accross the sea

And though I didn't cry

That voice will haunt my every dream

Until the day I die.

I'm gonna raise, raise hell

There's a story no one tells

You gotta raise, raise hell

Go on and ring that bell

I dug a hole inside my heart

To put you in your grave.

At this point it was you and me,

And mama didn't raise no slave.

You took my face in both your hands

And looked me in the eye

And I went down with such a force

That in your grave I lay.

I'm gonna raise, raise hell

There's a story no one's telling

You gotta raise, raise hell

Go on and ring that bell

Go on and ring that bell

Go on and ring that bell

Go on and ring that bell
