[Lyric] Namesake (Fear Not Ourselves Alone)

I was a child. When were you one too? And were you sick as a child too? By the sound of your (shh! shh!) dead name? (shh! shh!) No one knew

I was a child stuck in tropic white sands. In Philadelphia, I was derelict and high back then. I was trying to wreck my name back then. It was then I heard your record and decided to steal your dead name

Because struggling with my namesake was way harder than keeping myself in the heart of it

I thought I was boring to you
I thought I was controversial
I thought I was boring to you

I thought I was circumstantial

I was a child stuck in the remnants of your old house. In Olympia, it was raining on me and I did not want it stop. It was then I decidеd to take my shirt off in the middle of thе street where no one saw me steal your dead name

Because struggling with your namesake was such a precious thing for me to miss out on, while struggling with my own namesake left me with no ending, no glory, just a slow resounding story on:

How turns out I was boring to you
!
When I thought I was controversial
!
Turns out I was boring to you

Only ever circumstantial

You were
 a child
Crying
On a beach
In Philly
While i was
Struggling with
My namesake
Whilst struggling 
with
Your name
