Calling Out

pop, Shimmering dream-pop with airy synth pads, chorus-drenched guitars, and warm female vocals; verses float over pulsing bass and soft electronic drums, chorus erupts with stacked harmonies and wide reverb, Mid-song, a soaring, overdriven lead guitar tears through a euphoric breakdown, then dissolves back into a weightless, starry outro with distant spacey cello swells, cello, dream pop

[Pre-Chorus]
Every shortcut
Every shift
Still returns me to this place
Empty hallway
Ticking clock
Just an echo callin' your name

[Chorus]
I’m a traveler in space and time
Calling out
Calling out
Searching for the moment I see your face
Trying to be the man inside
You’d reach for
Reach for
The kind of heart a woman like you’d embrace
Full of poise
Full of grace
Worthy of the adulation on your face (oh)
Calling through time and space

[Verse 2]
Gathering my courage
From a thousand mirrored lives
Learning how to stand my ground
When I finally meet your eyes
Trading all useless yesterdays
For a steady
Open hand
So when I collide with you
I can grasp the love I’ve planned

[Pre-Chorus]
Every failure
Every drop
Of my blood to get it right
If I cross that final line
It Will be there at your side

[Bridge]
If it takes a million years
Or more learning how to stay
So when I stand in front of you
I won’t let you fly away (no)
Every version of my life
Fractures from that one choice
When at last I hear you say my name
I want relief to fill your voice
