[Verse 1] You paint your nails in colors no one names Wear silver rings that catch the afternoon You laugh too loud at jokes you made yourself And turn a passing glance into a tune [Pre-Chorus] Every odd note, every bright refrain Is yours to keep, not yours to explain [Chorus] Come as you are, in your own strange bloom Let every true thing take its own form You are not a copy, not a borrowed flame Say it with your whole heart: this is my name [Verse 2] You take the stairs two at a time for fun Then stop to watch a beetle cross the path You speak in colors when the words run thin And make a small parade of your own laugh [Pre-Chorus] Every odd note, every bright refrain Is yours to keep, not yours to explain [Chorus] Come as you are, in your own strange bloom Let every true thing take its own form You are not a copy, not a borrowed flame Say it with your whole heart: this is my name [Bridge] Not polished, not predictable Still vivid, still incredible [Final Chorus] Come as you are, in your own strange bloom Let every true thing take its own form You are not a copy, your own wild frame Say it with your whole heart: this is my name [Outro] This is my name This is my name
