Thats not my name

Thats not my name stop calling me that, its Morgan.

i don't have a disorder
no one has to know
i swear i don't mean to
the bruises don't really show

i promise that my family is good to me
i have a good home and a relationship
the scars don't show really
she didn't mean to do it, it was just a slip

i woke up one morning of a buss that went across town.
she? i don't know a she
who are you talking about?
Theres only me

I'm blacking out
and there are times i cant account for
people get mad when i show up late
so they show me the door

i wake up with bruises on my back
cuts on my legs and arms
its nothing really
i live in a city, but i woke up this morning standing among many farms

my name is Morgan
though when i show up at some night clubs they call me Kelly
i let is slip by because i know they drink to much
i fall asleep on Mon. and wake up on wed. with an aching belly

why do you keep calling me Kelly?
