Please don't speak my blackened name
Please don't think that things could stay the same
Well I don't want to cause any pain
So please don't speak my blackened name
Please don't cross that river tonight
You stay on your side and I will stay on mine
Well I don't want to cause any shame
So please don't speak my blackened name
My blackened name is known around
All the worst parts of town
My blackened name is on the tip of your tongue
And I don't want us to do what can't be undone
The smallest step from here and there
It gets much shorter when I see them things you wear
And I don't want to take any blame
So please don't speak my blackened name
Please don't speak my blackened name
