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
