lyrics

(my name)

Eleven seconds and then right, and then well
And then a sound I have not heard since I was nine
Two syllables that he has not used in twenty years
Because a man like him calls everybody son

He said my name (my name)
Not son, my name
He said my name
My name

He said my name, my name, he said my name
That's how I know it landed, that's the whole receipt
He said my name, my name, he said my name
Fifty-nine years of runway and he said my name

Son is a category. Son is a thing you call a boy.
My name is a person. My name means he was talking to me
and not to the role. I did not know I needed that. I needed that.
(beat returns, warm)

He said my name, my name, he said my name
That's how I know it landed, that's the whole receipt
He said my name, my name, he said my name
Fifty-nine years of runway and he said my name

(my name...)
