THE NAME

I hate to hear the name
For it’s like a thunder that runs thru my veins
Deep down my soul it gives me pain
And tears in my eyes like rain
.
I hate to see the name
For it’s like a ray that strikes my eyes
Squeeze my soul till I can’t breathe
And burst my spirit into weariness
.
Let me run where the sun shines
And leave that name in the midst of night
The name that breaks my heart
And leave me in despair
