"Christian Names"


keep my name close at hand
my christian name
keeps me safe it keeps me crowned
once a year i leave my room
and go downtown
to see what i'm missing
once a year i go downtown
i'm not missing much

my christian name keeps me safe
it keeps me guessing
what comes next what comes next
the past is boring
but i don't expect much else
the past is boring
but i expect the present tense
it keeps me sane

we know what your thinking now
what does it mean
to not move and move around
what does it mean
to not think and make no sounds
to not speak
and what it means to keep your ground
steady beneath your feet

the ground is steady beneath my feet
i know i know
