Here in the city I can't sleep
They warned me of defeat
But I abide despite having no guide
Embark along something new
But there's so much more to lose
Before I gain the world before I gain it all
I hear them call my name slowly
But I'm too far in
I hear them call my name slowly
But I won't give in
My fight is nothing close to new
And the streets each day proves
That I am fortunate through all I've done
Glimmers of hope speak my song
I softly speak along
He knows my name
He knows the key to my soul
I hear them call my name slowly
But I'm too far in
I hear them call my name slowly
But I won't give in
And through the pain is this haunting memory
Small enough it may have never existed at all
So I hold on for this hope for something real
To sweep me off my feet or drop me along the way
I'd rather hit the ground than have never flown
I hear them call my name slowly
But I'm too far in
I hear them call my name slowly
But I won't give in
