Lyrics of When They Call My Name by Black Veil Brides

verse

I′m gonna get out
If it's the last thing that I do
And in my heart
My 15 minutes are burned through
I won′t come back to fall off track
The way that I survived
It's a violent world
But today I'm still alive

chorus

I need you to tell me everything will be alright
To chase away the voices in the night
When they call my name
Have I gone insane?

verse

These thoughts will kill me
And everything that I hold true
And as I grow
I let my fear replace my youth
I won′t turn back
I won′t cross that hidden danger line
It's a loud and dark world
But I think I found the light

chorus

I need you to tell me everything will be alright
To chase away the voices in the night
When they call my name
Have I gone insane?
I need you to tell me everything will be alright

verse

To chase away the voices in the night
When they call my name
Have I gone insane?
I need you to tell me everything will be alright
To chase away the voices in the night
When they call my name
Have I gone insane?
