IRON and WINE lyrics : "Your Fake Name Is Good Enough For Me"


Fake watches in your broken hand
Barely keeping time

Barefoot in the city and your phone is ringing
Bet you're watching all the happy kids
Climbing on a car

They were singing something
Maybe they were singing:
"Become the weeds, we will become

Become the sea, we will become"

Your fake money gave you everything

Left along the road
You're cursing by the furnace and your phone is ringing
Bet you're watching all the happy kids

Clapping in the cool
They were singing something
Maybe they were singing:

"Become the weeds, we will become
Become the sea, we will become"


Your fake name is not for everyone
It's good enough for me
Forgotten by the garden and your phone is ringing

Bet you're watching all the happy kids
Kiss each other clean
They were singing something

Maybe they were singing:
"Become the weeds, we will become
Become the sea, we will become"


Become the rising sun
We will become, become

Become the damage done
We will become, become
Become the river sway

We will become, become
Become the love we made
We will become, become

Become the endless chain
We will become, become
Become forgotten name

We will become, become
Become sinner and the saint
We will become, become

Become bandage and the blade
We will become, become
Become the word and the breath

We will become, become
Become the card in the chest
We will become, become

Become the liked and the loathed
We will become, become
Become the bruise and the blow

We will become, become
Become the fruit and the fall
We will become, become

Become the caress and the claw
We will become, become
Become glory and the guilt

We will become, become
Become the blossom and the wilt
We will become, become

Become both right and wrong
We will become, become
Become the sound and the song

We will become, become
Become tooth and the tongue
We will become, become

Become the target and the gun
We will become, become
Become so cruel and kind

We will become, become
Become the weary and the wild
We will become, become

Become legions and doubt
We will become, become
Become the whisper and the shout
We will become, become
Become the honest and the veiled

We will become, become
Become the hammer and the nail
We will become, become
Become the blessing and the curse
We will become, become

Become their crooked words
We will become, become
Become the blood and the bone
We will become, become
Become an ice cream cone

We will become, become
Become the way and the wall
We will become, become
Become a disco ball
We will become, become

Become both now and then
We will become, become
Become again and again
We will become, become
