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
