I didn't have a name.
I have one now.
My name is pain and anger.
My name's betrayal now

I didn't have a heart
I think I have one now
You showed me how to feel
You taught me well some how

I didn't have a home
I've got a place now
You and your innocent flavor
Created one some how

I didn't understand
And still I can not see
How you could be my Savior
Saving me from me

I couldn't say the words
And still they stick in my throat
Perhaps only the feelings
Have given me this hope

I couldn't tell the truth
Oh how I wanted to
But when there were no options
I tried to protect you

But you, you wouldn't listen
Though I screamed and called your name
You ran to your father
And I'll never be the same


Thank you for your patience
Thank you for your hope
Thank you for your kindness
With them I know I'll cope

There was another thing
I'd like to thank you for
But right now it's too hard
So I turn and walk out your door

But in your hall I pause
In your hall I wait
I hear your breathing deepen
I ponder on your fate

I turn to head back in
To check your smileless face
But then I remember
That, that is not my place

My name is not betrayal
My name is not forget
My name is not this darkness
My name is just regret

Thank you for you love
I still don't own that yet
But what I felt for you
Is as close as I can get
