The Call

July 28, 2008 – 4:19 pm by admin

In the quiet of the night when the day’s gone not so well
And the thoughts like demon warriors churn the fires of hell
And you wonder why you’re doing it, what’s the point where’s the hope
And it’s all you know to do, to keep on moving just to cope

If you stop and take a breather, step aside and step within
If you listen really closely till your focus closes in
Do you hear that echo calling, it’s been calling all your life
When you hear it, it gets louder and it sharpens like a knife

Do you hear it in the birdsong, do you hear it in the wind
Do you hear it in the distance, do you hear it deep within
Can you shut it out forever, can you fight it till you die
Using reasons, rules and logic though you grit your teeth and cry

Will you tune in even closer, can you bear to hear it call
Will you squarely face your purpose with your back against the wall
Will you find the strength to break through your imaginary chains
Are you hypnotized believing all your trappings are your gains

Will you hate all those who follow ’cause it triggers all your fears
Or love them for their courage and keep longing all your years
When you hear it getting stronger will you know this is the day
Will you hear the call and answer letting nothing in your way
