Jerry Cantrell Give It A Name Lyrics

Give It A Name Lyrics

Give it a name, get it out of your home

Out in your backwoods a doghouse you
own

Give it a name like a howling blue hound

Chasing your fears man he's
hunting you down



Give it a name, get it out of your eye

Come from
the dockland got your low hangin' high

Give it a name, though you call
yourself saved

She's deep on your bone and it won't go away



Slowly
all the roles we act out become our identity

And in the end we are what we
pretend to be



Give it a name, get it out of your home

Out in your
backwoods a doghouse you own

Give it a name like a howling blue
hound

Chasing your fears man he's hunting you down



Give it a name,
get it out of your eye

Come from the dockland got your low hangin'
high

Give it a name, though you call yourself saved

She's deep on your
bone and it won't go away



Slowly all the roles we act out become our
identity

And in the end we are what we pretend to be



Separating
self from dream, harsh reality

And though it hurts, embrace the truth and
from fear be set free
