lyrics
put your nature in the dirty turn
pull it out you found that you’ve gone bad
like stones we dream to only stay asleep
there’s no forgetting
put your hair down, put your hair down
it’s time to find out who you really are
too careful in the light of permanence
there’s only seconds
and though you say we go too far
it’s not enough to know your name
around the hedges you hide so hard
it’s not enough to know your name
not enough to know your name
wouldn’t ask, it couldn’t be explained
reasons and resistance are a lie
how the functions added up to shame
when no one’s looking
put your hair down, put your hair down
it’s time to find out who you really are
too careful killed the meaning that you meant
when there’s no time left
and though you say we go too far
it’s not enough to know your name
around the hedges you hide so hard
it’s not enough to know your name
not enough to know your name
pull it out you found that you’ve gone bad
like stones we dream to only stay asleep
there’s no forgetting
put your hair down, put your hair down
it’s time to find out who you really are
too careful in the light of permanence
there’s only seconds
and though you say we go too far
it’s not enough to know your name
around the hedges you hide so hard
it’s not enough to know your name
not enough to know your name
wouldn’t ask, it couldn’t be explained
reasons and resistance are a lie
how the functions added up to shame
when no one’s looking
put your hair down, put your hair down
it’s time to find out who you really are
too careful killed the meaning that you meant
when there’s no time left
and though you say we go too far
it’s not enough to know your name
around the hedges you hide so hard
it’s not enough to know your name
not enough to know your name
