Music & Lyrics by Drew Brody
nothing going right in my life these days
wish i could go away for a little while
wish i had the time just to clear my head
and learn to breathe again
but i’m conscious of my life passing by
there are times when i feel so dead inside
if i’m to grow again i have to shed my skin
i have to try to lose my head
i’ll change my name
i’ll change my name
i’ll change my name
maybe i could change my luck
and taking all these jobs to pay the rent feels so different than i thought it would
when did i become such a damn cliche?
i sit in dark cafes with my notebook in my food
look at me i’m an artist
come and watch me express
i emote to impress
it’s so glamorous
i’ll find the darkness or i’ll turn off the light
if it’s easy i’ll fight
i’m so serious
now i’m serious
i’ll change my name
i’ll change my name
i’ll change my name
maybe i could change my luck
and the path of most resistance paved the road that led to your door
you couldn’t break my heart but you broke my faith
and that’s more
and that’s more
always had a hunch these syllables left me invisible to the naked eye
i’m picturing myself on the next airplane with my brand new name
i’m as careless as a child
and i solidify
leave the past behind
and i hold my head up high
and it feels wonderful
i feel comfortable
it’s a miracle i feel so alive
when i change my name
when i change my name
when i change my name
maybe i could, maybe i could….
