I feel like I got issues
Been burning through the tissues
Crying out for something true
Can I sort through all the noises
Interfering with my choices
What is me and what is you?
My heart beats
My mind speaks
Old Shame shouts
Regret screams
The Devil play'n on my strings
But the spirit's whispering
Oh when you call my name
Oh the sweetness of your voice
There's nothing quite the same
Oh yes when you call my name
All the other voices begin to fade away
Fade away
I get stuck inside my own head
The past keeps me distracted
Hung up on what should have been
I know bitter is a dead end
It only keeps me deafened
But it's hard to keep listening
My heart beats
My mind speaks
Old Shame shouts
Regret screams
The Devil play'n on my strings
But the spirit's whispering
Oh when you call my name
Oh the sweetness of your voice
There's nothing quite the same
Oh yes when you call my name
All the other voices begin to fade away
Fade away
Oh when you call my name
Call my name
Oh when you call my name
Call my name
You call call call call
Call my name
Your kindness Louder than the shame
Oh when You call call call call
Call my name
Nothing stays the same
Nothing stays the same
You call call call call
Call my name
Your kindness Louder than the shame
Oh when You call call call call
Call my name
Nothing stays the same
Nothing stays the same
When you call my name
The sweetness of your voice
There's nothing quite the same
Oh when you call my name
All the other voices begin to fade away
Fade away
Call my name call my name
Oh when you call my name
Call my name
