"Nom de Plume"

You're going by a different name
As if a marriage of ideas could make it change
But the only thing that's different is the way it's sang
Because your heart has stayed the same

What's in a name, oh what's in a name

A pseudonym when you take the stage
A platform to perform your claims
Subscribed to ideas that are easy to phrase
When they're written page by page

What's in a name, oh what's in a name
Everything, everything
What's in a name, oh what's in a name
Everything, everything

Take your own name
You use the wrong name, in vain
Take your own name
You take the wrong name, in vain
