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

The Solution

TAKE AWAY THE SHOVEL
IT’S TIME TO STOP DIGGING
THE HOLE WE LIVE IN IS DEEP ENOUGH
TAKE AWAY THE SHOVEL
WE’D BETTER STOP DIGGING
BEFORE THE WALLS CAVE IN ON US
THE DIRT WE DUG
RAKED PUSHED AND SHOVED
THE MOUNTAIN HIGH
THE VALLEY LOW
MOVE THE MOUNTAIN
FILL THE HOLE

Put away the weapons
IT’S TIME TO STOP FIGHTING
THE FIGHT WE FOUGHT IS LONG ENOUGH
TAKE AWAY THE WEAPONS
WE’D BETTER STOP FIGHTING
BEFORE THE LOVE DIES
THE LIFE WE TOOK
RAPED, PILLAGED AND PLUNDERED
A PRICE SO HIGH
MORAL’S SO LOW
REMOVE THE HATE
MAKE LOVE NOT WAR

Take away the money
IT’S TIME TO STOP SPENDING
THE DEBT WE OWE IS LARGE ENOUGH
TAKE AWAY THE MONEY
WE’D BETTER STOP SPENDING
BEFORE OUR GREED EATS UP WHAT’S LEFT
THE WAY WE LIVE
WITHOUT A CARE OR CONCERN
TAKING AND SPENDING
LYING AND CHEATING
GIVING NOTHING IN RETURN
WHEN WE SHOULD BE CARING
HOARDING INSTEAD OF SHARING

Take away religion
IT’S TO STOP THE EXCUSES
OUR DIFFERENCES ARE GREAT ENOUGH
TAKE AWAY RELIGION
WE’D BETTER STOP BLAMING
AND LOOK AT OURSELVES
WHEN WE ARE
WHAT WE SHOULD BE
THEN WE’LL BE CLOSE
TO CONNECTING
SPIRITUALLY

Take away ethnicity
IT’S TIME WE ALL BECAME ONE
YOU AND ME
TAKE AWAY ETHNICITY
COLOUR OF SKIN
THE FOOD WE EAT
THE THINGS WE DO
THE PLACES WE LIVE
WE’RE ALL THE SAME
WE’RE ALL TO BLAME;

I AIN'T STUPID
I AIN’T DUMB
I AIN’T LAZY
BUT ONE THINGS FOR SURE
LIFE SURE IS CRAZY!
GUY LOST HIS JOB
LOST HIS MIND
KILLED HIS FAMILY
TOOK HIS OWN LIFE
IN ANOTHER PLACE
ANOTHER TIME
ANOTHER WORLD
NOT MINE
SUBDIVISION
SACRED SOIL
PEACEFUL COEXISTENCE
MAKES BLOOD BOIL
I WAS HERE FIRST
GET IN LINE
IT BELONGS TO ME
NO, IT’S MINE
I AIN’T STUPID
I AIN’T DUMB
I AIN’T LAZY
BUT ONE THING’S FOR SURE
THIS WORLD SURE IS CRAZY;

The solution is simple
It's just that we're all too fucking lazy!
