[Verse 1]
It's not like a landline, you don't speak to my parents
It's not like I need much, but I need the transparence
I know you never called me when I needed most
I know I never told you how much it hit home

[Chorus]
Tell me what they call you
But let me tell me my name first
I'm tired of this shaping
Hush now, don't drown me out
Tell me what they call you
But let me tell me my name first
I'm tired of this shaping
Hush now, don't drown me out
Hush now, don't drown me out

[Verse 2]
Reverse the roles now, I'll be the one walking
And I'll put myself first, I'll be the one talking
'Cause you never saw me as more than just a phase
And you never told me until it was too late
'Cause, my God, it cut me open
I went crazy, I lost it a bit
But, my God, it left me golden
Yeah, I'm crazy, I got it
