“The Call in the Rain” is Anders J Holm’s most personal song yet — a blues-rock tribute to a brother, a bandmate, and a friend he lost too soon.

It’s the sound of a man driving through a storm with the weight of a name in his chest…
the sound of headlights on wet pavement…
the sound of a song played one last time under hospital lights.

Raw, cinematic and painfully human, this track carries the kind of honesty you only earn through real loss.
No filter.
No polish.
Just truth.

For everyone who’s ever loved someone they weren’t ready to lose —
this song is for you.

The Call in the Rain

Lyrics inspired by Leonard Cohen's 'Anthem'

[Verse 1]
Before the sun was rising,
Yeah, before the sun was rising,
A little bird said, “Baby, don’t you cry
You can climb up one more time.”
‘Cause the world keeps turning heavy,
Mmm, the world keeps turning heavy
And every crack inside your heart
Lets a little light in… steady.

[Chorus]
Ring those bells that still are ringing,
Ring those bells, let your truth come through.
Ain’t nothing perfect in this world, no
But that’s how the light breaks through,
Oh honey… that’s how the light breaks through.

[Verse 2]
High up on their towers,
Lord, high up on their towers,
They preach their holy stories loud
But they tremble at their own power.
I won’t follow where they’re leading,
No, I won’t follow where they’re leading
‘Cause a quiet woman on the edge of night
Can make the thunder start bleeding.

[Chorus]
Ring those bells that still are ringing,
Ring those bells, let your truth come through.
Baby, the world ain’t never perfect
But that’s how the light breaks through,
Oh yes… that’s how the light breaks through.

[Bridge]
You can count your broken pieces,
Count ‘em up, one, two, three
But the sum don’t make a story,
And the story don’t set you free.
Still every wandering soul
Finds a road in shades of blue
Like a stranger in the nighttime
Finding home in something true.

[Final Chorus]
Ring those bells that still are ringing,
Ring them slow, let your heart shine through.
Ain’t no perfect song for living
But that’s how the light breaks through…
Oh baby…
That’s how the light breaks through.

Thru the cracks...
