Not My Name

歌詞

[Intro] Low lights, cold drinks I hear you talk but you don’t think You laugh like nothing's wrong But that name you call ain't mine [Verse 1] I was standing right behind Every word just passed me by You said her name like it was yours And I smiled like I’d heard it before Told myself I’m doing fine Kept my cool, stayed in line But the truth is hard to hold When you don’t see me like before [Pre-Chorus] I know, I know, I know It’s not my place to show These feelings that I hide Behind a calm disguise [Chorus] Not my name, you said it again But it’s her, not me — I pretend Every word is a little sting Hurts enough but I don’t say a thing Not my name, but I feel the fire Still I hope you’ll call me higher Got me quiet, but I still crave The way you say — my name [Verse 2] You walk by, I act the same But inside, I can’t escape Every word you throw around Never lands where I’m found I said it's nothing, just a phase But you still live in my brain Like a song I can’t unhear And the chorus is her name [Pre-Chorus] I know, I know, I know I should’ve let it go But something in your smile Keeps me here a while [Chorus] Not my name, you said it again But it’s her, not me — I pretend Every word is a little sting Hurts enough but I don’t say a thing Not my name, but I feel the fire Still I hope you’ll call me higher Got me quiet, but I still crave The way you say — my name [Bridge] I could leave, you’d never guess How deep I hide this mess Wrote you down in every line But you still read her every time [Final Chorus] Not my name, I hear it clear You don't even know I’m near One more night, I’ll play this game Till the day you say my name Not my name, but still I wait Just a whisper would feel like fate Call me wrong, or call me brave But I still dream — you’ll say my name [Outro] Low lights, same scene You're still you, and I’m still me But in my mind, just for a while You say my name ...
