My name


I keep hearing my name
Someone keeps calling my name
I hear my name called out loud
I'm not sure who
I don't know why
I can hear them calling
calling my name out loud
I can hear them calling
Someone keeps calling my name out loud
and I don't know why
The closer it get
the further it seems
I hear it when I'm waking
when I'm wide awake
I hear it when I'm fast asleep
I hear it in my dreams
Over and over
I hear my name whispered gently
and shouted out loud
In passion and in anger
in the midst of a crowd
It comes as the singing of a happy song
then as a warning of what is yet to come
I keep hearing my name
Someone keeps calling my name
I hear my name called out loud
It gives me shivers
all up and down my spine
I wonder who keeps calling me
all the time
When I feel good
and having a good time
my name is called out
there's no need to shout
I hear a familiar voice
calling my name out loud
I keep hearing my name
being called
when there's no one to be seen
it's like a whisper
in a dream
then it's quiet in between
the whisper and the scream
I keep hearing my name
who is calling
who is calling my name
who is playing
who is playing this game
I keep hearing my name
I wish it would stop
It's driving me insane
Finally peace and quiet
in my head
a rest for my brain.

Hello
is anyone there
or am I alone again
I used to hear my name
but lately seems like
all I hear is the rain
falling like tears drops
falling on my head
There's hardly a sound
it's as quiet as the dead
Someone used to call my name
I used to hear my name
I sure wish someone
would call out my name again
