Say My Name
ODESZA/Alexandra Catherine Frances Cheatle Lyrics

I wanna go so what'd you say
I want to leave, so can you tell me if you'll let me go?

When you gonna let me know
Do I have your attention? Can you give me a clear answer?

If you give a damn about me
Do you even care about me, or am I just wasting my time?

'Cause you got my hands tied
I feel trapped, like I can't escape from you.

In my defense I always fall for confidence
I am drawn to people who are self-assured, even if it ends up being a weakness of mine.

And your compliments look good on me
I enjoy the way you make me feel good about myself, even though I know it may not be genuine.

'Cause nobody knows it better
There is someone who understands what it's like to feel judged and overlooked, and that person is me.

Than the girl in the corner with the scarlet letter
I know what it's like to be ostracized from society and labeled as an outcast.

And while you're watching
While you're standing here observing me from a distance,

You may think that she doesn't matter
you might assume that my feelings and opinions don't have any significance.

But no one knows you better, oh yeah
However, I understand who you truly are, and you can't hide from me.

I need a sign or a signal
I am looking for some kind of indication or gesture from you.

I've overthought everything I can think of into symbol
I have analyzed and interpreted every detail to try and understand your intentions.

I need the coat and your jacket
I want to feel close to you, even if it's just by being close to your clothing.

And the remnants of your cigarette packet
I want to feel connected to you, even if it's just through the trace of smoke you leave behind.

I wanna dance, I wanna dance with you
I want to let go and experience the freedom of dancing with someone I care about.

So take a chance, take a chance, oh yeah
Give in to the moment and take a risk, and enjoy the moment together.

I wanna dance, I wanna dance, I wanna dance with you
I want to feel closer to you and share a moment together through music and dance.

Oh yeah
A phrase used to express enthusiasm and excitement.
