Just a Name

[Verse 1]

Boy, I never knew your name

Oh, but what a crying shame

They said you crossed the line last night

Said you swim towards the light

[Chorus]

Said your mind was full of mud

Mud and muscle and blood

And it's only 'cause you took that leap

That they're all talkin' in their sleep

And your friends can't believe it's true

Can't believe what the night took from you

All those nights of fun and games

Well now you're just a name

[Post-Chorus]

Oh, I think it's fair to say

You threw it all away

Just like Louie said

Better off than dead

Oh, it's not too harsh to say

You could've had another day

But just like Louie's prayer

Thank your God that you just don't care

[Verse 2]

Boy, they said you were chasin' the sun

Would've done anything for anyone

So much they said was goin' great

Until you stayed out too late

[Chorus]

Said your mind was full of mud

Mud and muscle and blood

Oh, it's only 'cause you took that leap

That they're all talkin' in their sleep

And your friends can't believe it's true

Can't believe what the night took from you

All those nights of fun and games

But now you're just a name

[Post-Chorus]

Oh, I think it's fair to say

You threw it all away

Just like Louie said

Better off than dead

Oh, it's not too harsh to say

You could've had another day

But just like Louie's prayer

Thank your God that you just don't care

[Chorus]

Said your mind was full of mud

Mud and muscle and blood

And it's only 'cause you took that leap

That they're all talkin' in their sleep

And your friends can't believe it's true

Can't believe what the night took from you

All those nights of fun and games

Well now you're just a name
