Fire Drill

เนื้อเพลงต้นฉบับภาษาอังกฤษ

[Verse 1]
At eleven seventeen
the bell starts clean.
No smoke.
No smell.
Laminated arrows
on every wall.

[Hook]
Bell on.
Painted line.
Wet shoes.
Mouths shut.
It rings until
we get it right.

[Verse 2]
The rain finds us
by the loading bay.
Jon holds the clipboard
under his coat.
His pen stops working.
He counts with his lips.

[Verse 3]
Someone laughs once
near the bins.
The sound goes thin.
A manager lifts one hand.
The man coughs.
He looks at his shoe.

[Hook]
Bell on.
Painted line.
Wet shoes.
Mouths shut.
It rings until
we get it right.

[Break]
The canteen lights stay on.
A chair faces the window.
Half a sandwich
under cling film.
The alarm keeps ringing
for the room.

[Verse 4]
We go back in
by the side door.
My sleeve smells of rain.
The fire door swings slow.
I hold it open
after the last coat passes.
