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 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
