One of the amazing things about the film footage of Novem from 1973 is the fact that they tell us why they wrote their songs. Knowing the inspiration for the songwriter makes their music that much more powerful.

Calling My Name is about Tom’s combat experiences in Vietnam. The song speaks about a soldier’s thoughts when all hell breaks loose. Listen closely to the lyrics and you’ll get some idea of what it must have been like to have fought in Vietnam, or in any war for that matter.

“It’s not easy watching people you know die.” -Tom

Mother I'm cold, what do I do?
Father I am dieing, where are the angels?
What have I done? How could I have known?
Stop my bleeding, crackling bones
Father, have you known all along?

Sunlight where are you? Don't give me away
I'm in a deep hole, chasing pain again today.
Let's all get together, together right now
As time grows, we push deeper
For reasons no one seems to know

Chorus
The end is in site / the world lives in fright
I don't know about the future / but it ain't bright

I'm going to leave this place / in a year from now
I don't know what's calling my name but I need to look it in the face

Chorus
The end is in site / the world lives in fright
I don't know about the future / but it ain't bright

I'm going to leave this place / In a year from now
Find out what's calling me / Calling my name 

Chorus
The end is in site / the world lives in fright
I don't know about the future / but it ain't bright 

Find out what's calling me / Calling my name
Find out what's calling me / Calling my name
