Nobody Knows Your Name Lyrics — Dead Outlaw

Nobody Knows Your Name Lyrics

[ELMER]
Somewhere, there's a list of names
Jesus Christ, Jesse James
Hoodoo Brown, Charlie Bone
Epitaphs all set in stone

Me, me, me, me
Just a hole where a soul should be
Just a bland non-entity
Breathing in and out

It isn't right! It isn't fair!
It's like you're born, but you're not anywhere
And once you're gone, it's just the same
When nobody knows, nobody knows your name

No leg up, no silver spoon
Up at six, drunk by noon
And every second, I'm awake
But that don't fix God's big mistak?

Why, why, why, why
Do I feel like I'm gonna die?
If I nev?r signify
Am I really here?
You go to work! You go to bed!
You break your back and then you end up dead!
And just a grave to stake your claim
Nobody knows, nobody knows your name

[ELMER & WALTER]
It isn't right! It isn't fair!
It's like you're born, but you're not anywhere
And once you're gone, it's just the same
Where nobody knows
Nobody knows your name!

[WALTER]
Nobody knows your name!

[ELMER]
Nobody knows

[WALTER]
Nobody knows your name!

[ELMER]
Nobody knows your name!
