lyrics

The person I was before is dead
That's why it's called a dead name
The amount of dysphoria that name brings me
Is unparalleled by almost every other way you could disrespect me
Every time I hear that name I want to scream
Every time you say that name I want to haunt your fucking dreams
I don't know how else to put this so I'll be as fucking blunt as I can be
Calling by my dead name is an act of violence that pushes me closer and closer to suicide
So if I die, and you still refuse to use my real name
My blood is on your fucking hands
No apologies
