What’S In A Name? (Feat. Dan Smith (Bastille))

Some people spend their lives running away from it
Too many sleepless nights, lying awake from it
Some people bank their cheques by embracing it
Embracing it
Some people spend their lives running away from it
Too many sleepless nights, lying awake from it
Some people roll their eyes just from hearing it
From hearing it

It's the badge you wear, it's your own straightjacket
It's the cross you bear, it's your life in brackets
Is it who you are? Is it what you make it?
Just something you earn, or can you dictate it?

How'd you feel, how'd you feel when you hear your name
Calling out, calling a hundred times a day?
How'd you feel when you hear your name
Calling out, calling a hundred times a day, a day, a day?
Your name, your name, your name
A day, a day, a day
Your name, your name, your name

So proud, he wrote it large all over his skin
Nothing in common with that body she's in
Every time you hear it said, it just makes you cringe
It makes you cringe

It's the badge you wear, it's your own straightjacket
It's the cross you bear, it's your life in brackets
Is it who you are? Is it what you make it?
Just something you earn, or can you dictate it?

How'd you feel, how'd you feel when you hear your name
Calling out, calling a hundred times a day?
How'd you feel when you hear your name
Calling out, calling a hundred times a day, a day, a day?
Your name, your name, your name
A day, a day, a day
Your name, your name, your name

You had a brother, but you took one life
I had a father, but you fired my life
You had a brother, but you took one life
I had a father, but you fired my life
You had a brother, but you took one life
I had a father, but you fired my life
You had a brother, but you took one life
I had a father, but you fired my life
