Calling Lyrics - Neon - Shades Apart

When the sun is almost out of view 

I see the old man climbing to his roof 

Leans against the sky into the painted distance 

Tries to hear it every night 

He wants to make it right 

Calling out of somewhere 

Voices in the shadows 

Calling out of someplace 

Moving one by one 

Says he had sons, all about my age 

Can't remember more the pictures fade 

Blink and years go by the days go on forever 

Shines the medals every day 

He doesn't miss a day 

Under indigo and charcoal skies 

He listens when the traffic rattle dies 

On the jetstream signals at the edge of silence 

More than half a world away 

Is not so far away
