Lyrics

CALLING ME HOME

I fill my days with noise
To stop the silence spread
And every crowded room’s
A blend of thrill and dread
My instinct’s to say
Yeah, I’m doing OK

Voices are calling me home
Thoughts form in my mind
That are not my own
Calling me home

The distance learns my name
And wears my face
My thoughts don’t sound the same
They’re drifting out of place
My anxiety
Is nothing new to me

Voices are calling me home
Thoughts form in my mind
That are not my own
Calling me home
In moments of clarity

I learn how little I know “me”
As far as I can be

From anything I know
Step into the air
With nowhere left to go
If you could read my mind
The chaos you would find

Voices are calling me home
Thoughts form in my mind
That are not my own
Voices are calling me home
Thoughts form in my mind
That are not my own
Calling me home
