I Am My Own Name Lyrics & Chords By Peter Murphy

I am my own name
I am my own
I am my own name, my own name
My own name
My own name
I am

No thin pixie
White and drawn
No shaded shadow
No monk head shorn
No jaded shock star
Or blackened thorn
No heathen cynic
No lover scorned

A seeking searcher
A shifting shape
A spirit lifter
Where the sea doth break
I fought the misers
Pawn to king
Where death drew sick
I call out the ring
Move and shimmer
In the magical dust
Swing the lanterns
Of the Sacred

I am my own
I am my own
I am my own name
My own name
My own
Name
My own name
I am

I fought the misers'
Pawn to King
Where death drew out
Call out the Ring
Move shimmer
In the magical dust
Swing the lanterns
At the sacred Musk
No pixie
Nor white and drawn
No shaded shadow
No monk heard shorn
No jaded shock star
No blackened thorn
No
Torn
Seeking searcher
Shifting shape

I am my own
I am my own name
I am my own name
I am my own

How is the new baby?
This is a pitiful country around
How is the new baby?
This is a pitiful oountry around here

I am my own
I am my own
I am my own

I am my own
I am my own
I am my own name
I am my own

How is the new baby?
This is a pitiful country around
How is the new baby?
This is a pitiful oountry around here

I am my own name
