[Chorus]

Something keeps calling me

I feel the burdens on me

Something keeps calling me

This is so heavy for me


[Verse 1]

You might say I can never love again

Well, you might be right, at least tonight

My friends say I can never pull it together

Well, they might be right, at least tonight

My kids say I'll never come home again

And I know they're right, at least tonight

If I fail, my whole life goes to hell

And it don't seem right, I need help tonight


[Chorus]

Something keeps calling me

I feel the burdens on me

Something keeps calling me

This is so heavy for me


[Verse 2]

My wife says I'll never have money again

And she might be right, I lost tonight

My heart says I can get it all again

And I hope I'm right, but not tonight

The priest said, "You're gonna lose family"

And he might be right, at least tonight

My mind says, "You should give it up today"

Sounds awesome, right? But not tonight


[Chorus]

Something keeps calling me

I feel the burdens on me

Something keeps calling me

This is so heavy for me


[Instrumental Break]


[Chorus]

Something keeps calling me

I feel the burdens on me

Something keeps calling me

This is so heavy for me


[Outro]

This is forever

(This is so heavy on me)

I'm never, ever turning back

(This is so heavy on me)

I'm never

(This is so heavy on me)

So heavy on me

I'm never
