Calling Out

She was seventeen
Lying peaceful on the floor
She left a note
Slid it under her parents door
She doesn’t know what’s next
She hopes it’s better than life down here
Just a memory
All the signs I couldn’t see
She was never alone
If she gave it time she would have known
I hope it’s different way up there
It’s not the same when you’re not here
By my side
I feel you there
I’m calling out
Can you hear me screaming out for you?
I’m calling out your name
He was down on the couch
He got too drunk, they thought he passed out
Then I got the call
His dying words, Don’t let me fall
Now you’ve faced your greatest fear
It’s not the same when you’re not here
I wish I could see
Ther faces and smiles in front of me
I have to pretend
That you’re still here but now it’s the end
I know the pain, I felt that fear
I know the way it is down here
By my side
I feel you there
I’m calling out
Can you hear me screaming out for you?
I’m calling out your name
By my side
I feel you there
I’m calling out
Can you hear me screaming out for you?
I’m calling out your name
I’m calling out your name
I’m calling out your name
I’m calling out your name
Here, by my side
I feel you there
I’m calling out
Can you hear me screaming out for you?
I’m calling out your name
By my side
I feel you there
I’m calling out
Can you hear me screaming out for you?
I’m calling out your name
