I raved in agony
Unseen forces beckoning
They called my names in discordant tunes
They would not let me be
The call of my ancestors

Beckoning on me to come home
A place in the other side of life
Reluctant and sturbborn my spirit was
My time is not now I shouted
Not ready to cross the great divide

Drawn in a thin line
I only could see their faces
My only strength was hope
And that was just enough
I was this close, yet I live
