Cold War Kids
Another Name
[Verse 1]
I can't help feeling like I'm starting over
And of course I wish you well
My whole life story I've gotta retell
To somebody else
It wasn't my choice
I can't argue when you say you're moving on
I'm still processing that we're done

[Verse 2]
Back when I was crying on your shoulder
'Cause I had to hide my face
I was mixed up, tripped out all in my head
And I wanted to erase it
I needed your voice to tell me
That it will never be too late
To make sense of yesterday

[Chorus]
Emotions I can't put into words
All the times I felt deserted
Old fears that I had to unlearn, unlearn
I couldn't stay there
You showed me how to take all of my pain
Give it another name
Give it another name
[Verse 3]
When one door closes another opens
And if I let down my defenses
Turn heartbreak into hoping
These are not empty cliches
I'm finding my voice, it's clumsy
But I like it anyway
I think I'm gonna be okay

[Chorus]
Emotions I can't put into words
All the times I felt deserted
Old fears that I had to unlearn, unlearn
I couldn't stay there
You showed me how to take all of my shame
Give it another name
Give it another name

[Outro]
Give it another name
Give it another name
Mhm
Give it another name
Give it another name
Ayy, mm
Give it another name
Give it another name
