Answer the Call
It rang and rang
I tried to hide
And cower away in a corner
I ran away or at least I tried
It rang through my head
Over again and again
So reluctantly I picked up
"Where have you been?"
There was no lying so I told Him the truth
And simply, He calmly replied
"I need to you spread a message..."
"...To anyone who know's one that has died"
I knew I couldn't avoid it
I don't know if I am sane
But I did what I was told
Because with Him there is no shame
When He called on me
I ran to hide
When He calls on you
