Keep Your Name - Dirty Projectors

I don’t know why you abandoned me

You were my soul and my partner

What we imagined and what we became

We’ll keep 'em separate and you keep your name

You keep your name

You keep your name

You keep your name

You keep your name, you keep your name

There is a place that we both know

It lives in our hearts, we built it together

Fear is a manacle but love is unchained

So we’ll keep 'em separate and you keep your name

You keep your name (We don’t see eye to eye)

You keep your name (We don’t see eye to eye)

You keep your name (We don’t see eye to eye)

You keep your name (We don’t see eye to eye)

I wasn’t there for you

I didn’t pay attention

I didn’t take you seriously

And I didn’t listen

I don’t think I ever loved you

That was some stupid shit

I wanted what you wanted but we never really felt the same

I kept my name 'cause we were just different

Your heart is saying clothing line

My body said Naomi Klein, No Logo

We shared kisses and visions

But like KISS' shithead Gene Simmons said:

A band is a brand and it licks that our vision is dissonant

You always hurried to grow up

I think I’ll always just feel kinda the same

(But you say) What I want from art is truth, what you want is fame

Now we’ll keep 'em separate and you keep your name

You keep your name (We don’t see eye to eye)

You keep your name (We don’t see eye to eye)

You keep your name (We don’t see eye to eye)

You keep your name (We don’t see eye to eye)
