How can I explain how it came to be
it wasn't over night while I couldn't sleep
I can still remember how it used to be
oh 'cause somewhere, it's hard remembering
but somewhere somebody knows my name

Just give me a coat and a shirt that's clean
just a little dutch stops my body quaking
don't wait too long before the doubt sets in
oh 'cause somewhere, why can't you understand
that somewhere somebody knows my name

Here I am with my back against the wall
no further left to fall
if I can't stand then at least if I can crawl
then I know that I won't forget
somewhere

I know what's going on what they've planned for me
I catch every word it's all in my hearing
don't wait too long before the doubt sets in
oh 'cause somewhere, it's hard remembering
but somewhere somebody knows my name

Here I am with my back against the wall
no further left to fall
if I can't stand then at least if I can crawl
then I know that I won't forget
somebody knows my name
somebody somewhere
somebody somewhere
somebody knows my name
how can I explain how it came to be
it wasn't over night while I couldn't sleep
somebody knows me
somebody knows me
somebody knows me
