Calling One By One Lyrics

One By One Lyrics

He stands alone outside the blooming yards 

All is calm there on the
street 

The shadows pass him hung right over 

The pain on his face
he knew he'd keep... 

His hair is long, and it's twisted, it's twisted


Around the smile spread cheek to cheek 

Another child, another
soul, grabs a hold 

To the metal that will end his misery... 



[CHORUS:]

One by one 

We stand beneath the sun 

With arms
high open wide 

Two by two 

He's getting you 

To watch him as
he leaves this life he knew 



How much anger is set aside 

As
each one of us cries 

Red light they come and they take him away 

In the thoughts, he'll be better, some day... 

Tied tight, can't see
out your eyes 

That he's sure to shine, sure to shine 

In this deep
dark, played out, reality show 

So, who's the man, with the plan, 

eating up all that he can? 

Don't you see, don't you see... 



[CHORUS]



Do you ever think that things are meant to be? 

I
know we all have our reasons why 

And now the power of one human being 

Has gone and changed so many lives... 



[CHORUS]



One
by one 

We start to come undone... 

Two by two 

He's getting
through to you... 

One by one we stand, we stand, we stand, over, 

over, you...
