Brandi Carlile - Raise Hell

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 done came to me and kissed me in my sleep

And I'll be singing like an angel until I'm six feet deep

I found myself an omen and I tattooed 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 now 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 across 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 now 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 lie

I'm gonna raise raise hell

There's a story no one's telling

You gotta raise raise hell

Go on now ring that bell

Go on now ring that bell

Go on now ring that bell

Go on now ring that bell
