Song title: Call Me Home
Written by: F Riebl, R Irwin

Lyrics:
Sometimes I feel no armour
Sometimes I feel no ground
Sometimes I feel the sky won't open
and turn these words around

At night I am woken by
Images of the flood whoah oh
I'm living on the border
I'm living on the mud

You say there is no order
You say there is no cause
You say there is no reason to find
Happiness at all

Call me home
Is anybody
Is anybody out there
Call me home
Is anybody
Is anybody out there at all

Have we forgot our brothers
Have we forgot our kin
Have we forgot who loves us dearly
Have we forgot who'll sink or swim and

I went down to the water
Where my heartbeat slows whoah oh
The river started flowing
And I know where it goes

Call me home
Is anybody
Is anybody out there
Call me home
Is anybody
Is anybody out there at all


Note: The original lyrics are shown on the lyrics sheet that Dannystuff from the TCE forums took a picture of (and was kind enough to share). See below.
