Call Me Out 04:55
There is an object In the middle of an empty room There is a subject In the place between me and you But I don’t want you to worry Where I go in that evil hour I’m only down here at my station trying to figure out What runs on that essential power Behold, the brute degeneration Old questions in the blood The light that shines on you is the only light I can’t see the way I should I want to talk about it If you wake up and wonder Why I’m not at your side You’ll find me sitting in the dark Trying to understand the light Though my friend might measure my love By the time I take Still my eyes betray me At the end of every day I am afraid. So maybe Jacob’s on the ladder Holding it down and halfway home That leaves the rest of us descending in the dust Or sleeping on the stone There’s a light here that I recognize Or maybe my eyes are just failing me again Maybe I might only mean just what I say Still the light is leaving at the end of every day I am afraid. Call me out if I’m not working Call me out if I’m in the way Call me out from the stone under the ladder Call me out for the limits of my faith Call me out for the place that I inherit Call me out if I’m turning from the gate Should I call you out for the same? If you wake up and wonder Why I’m not at your side You’ll find me sitting in the dark Trying to understand the light Though my friends might measure my love By the time I take Still that light is leaving At the end of every day I am afraid.

Call Me Out was written in 2017. It's an acknowledgement of the need for open listening, active learning, inward study and accountability towards personal and social change. It's an owning of our privilege and responsibilities.

We're not looking to take up a lot of space with this release, but thought it might do some good to put it out now, rather than hiding it away any longer. It won't be available on spotify, applemusic, etc, or as a physical release. Please don't post it on youtube. The purpose of this release is to raise money for the folks mentioned above.

Additional artwork and lyric sheet included with download.

Sincerely,

Constantines, 2020
