Know My Name / To Be Heard And Be Had

(albüm: Homeschool - The EP - 2012)

Know my name, ask me for it
When you walk and forget my face
Come back with the grace to ask me for it
Know my name, ask me for it

Know my name, ask me for it
Letters combined to label my kind
That speak a truth from my lips only
That leave a man fulfilled and lonely
That touch his head like a priest holy
And push him back like a temptress solely
To know my own hands
Know my name, ask me for it

Know my name, ask me for it
I took yours once and I kept it close
Every letter in my book
I wanted, I chose, I took your name
I asked you for it
I know your name, I asked you for it
Know my name, ask me for it

I've been up all night
Lettin the good light shine
And I have been lonely
With God as the only
Friendship of any kind
But if you're wanting a crowd
Start laughing aloud at jokes
The humor will swallow
It'll eat your heart hallow
But you'll have the entourage to boast

And if there's one thing I've learned
It's how to be heard and be had
Oh, I've shut the door
On the televised war
And let it feel good to be bad
If there's one thing I've learned
It's how to be heard and be had
Oh, I've shut the door
On the televised war
And let it feel good to be bad
Oh, I've shut the door
On the televised war
And let it feel good to be bad
