My Name

Why don't you ask me
 How long I've been waiting
 Set down on the road
 With the gunshots exploding
 I'm waiting for you
 In the gloom and the blazing
 I'm waiting for you
 I sing like a slave
 I know I should know better
 I've learned all my lessons
 Right down to the letter
 And still I go on like this
 Year after year
 Waiting for miracles
 And shaking with fear
 ♪
 Why don't you answer
 Why don't you come save me
 Show me how to use
 All these things that you gave me
 Turn me inside out
 So my bones can save me
 Turn me inside out
 You've come this close
 You can come even closer
 The gunshots get louder
 And the world spins faster
 And things just get further
 And further apart
 The head from the hands
 And the hands from the heart
 ♪
 One thing that's true
 Is the way that I love him
 The earth down below
 And the sky up above him
 And still I go on like this
 Day after day
 Still I go on like this
 ♪
 Now I've said this
 I already feel stronger
 I can't keep waiting for you
 Any longer
 I need you now not someday
 When I'm ready
 Come down on the road
 Come down on the road
 ♪
 My name, my name
 Nothing is, nothing is the same
 ♪
 And I won't go back the way I came
 My name, my name
 Nothing is the same
