Trivia, story behind the song, etc.

Lyrics

Who led you to this hiding place 
These lightning thread-spun silver tunnels 
The red bells beckon you to ride 
A handprint on the driver’s side 
It looks a lot like engine oil 
And tastes like being poor and small 
And popsicles in summer 

Deep red bells 
Deep as I have been done 
Deep red bells 
Deep as I have been done 

It always has to come this 
The red bells ring this tragic hour 
We've lost sight of the overpass 
The daylight won’t remember that 
No speckled fawns raise round your bones 
Who took the time to fold your clothes 
And shook the valley of the shadow 

Deep red bells 
Deep as I have been done 
Deep red bells 
Deep as I have been done 

Where does this mean world cast its cold eye? 
Who’s left to suffer long about you? 
Does your soul cast about like an old paper bag 
Past empty lots and early graves 
Of those like you who lost their way 
Murdered on the interstate 
While the red bells rang like thunder? 

Oh deep red bells 
Deep as I have been done 
Deep red bells 
Deep as I have been done
