Name I Am

(album: Keep It Simple, Stupid! - 2022)

Living up to the name I am
Oh, and it hurts
You're making it worse
When you sit down to write
Inside you, a child is singing along
Or is there something wrong with you?
Are you singing a song just to sing and dilute
Now that's stupid
If you don't make the music your god, then you're lost
You don't know what to do and the odds are it's true

Living up to the name I am
Oh, and it hurts
You're making it worse
When I sit down to write
Inside me, a critic is hearing it wrong
Oh, now what is he on? I don't know
But I got this far with him and now he can't go
So he tells me right to my fears
Keep holding on tight as he's sipping my tears
And he says, "Boy, I love you"
