Some people spend their lives running away from it
Too many sleepless nights lying awake from it
Some people bank their cheques by embracing it
Embracing it
Some people spend their lives running away from it
Too many sleepless nights lying awake from it
Some people roll their eyes just from hearing it
From hearing it
It's the badge you wear
It's your own straight jacket
It's the cross you bear
It's your life in brackets
Is it who you are?
Is it what you make it?
Just some thing you earn?
Or can you dictate it?
How'd you feel?
How'd you feel when you hear your name?
Calling out, calling a hundred times a day
How'd you feel when you hear your name?
Calling out calling a hundred times a day
A day, a day
Your name, your name, your name
A day, a day, a day
Your name, your name, your name
So proud he wrote it large all over his skin
Nothing in common with that body she's in
Every time you hear it said it just makes you cringe
It makes you cringe
It's the badge you wear
It's your own straight jacket
It's the cross you bear
It's your life in brackets
Is it who you are?
Is it what you make it?
Just some thing you earn?
Or can you dictate it?
How'd you feel?
How'd you feel when you hear your name?
Calling out, calling a hundred times a day
How'd you feel when you hear your name?
Calling out calling a hundred times a day
A day, a day
Your name, your name, your name
A day, a day, a day
Your name, your name, your name
You let it roll off of your tongue, one line
I never thought it could define my life
You let it roll off of your tongue, one line
I never thought it could define my life
You let it roll off of your tongue, one line
I never thought it could define my life
You let it roll off of your tongue, one line
I never thought it could define my life
