Tag-Tag Lyrics

(tag)
can't take it out, forever your name.
(tag)
can't rip it out, forever your language.
(tag)
can't take it out, forever your country.
(tag)
can't rip it out, it suits you, it suits you.
(tag)
my name is your symptom,
(tag)
my name is your currency,
(tag)
my name is your fragrance.
(tag)
who are you? who are you?
stranger, will you please trade your names with me?
cover my body and rifle through my pockets.
no identification and no proof of identity.
(tag)
no marks on the body,
(tag)
no patters in the fingerprints.
(tag)
no blood, no scars, no teeth, no nothing.
(tag)
still, i know you, i know you.
my name is a nation.
(tell me your nation)
my name is a correction.
(tell me nonfiction)
my name is a condition.
(tell me nonfiction)
my name is a request that you
(tell me nonfiction.)

(tag-tag)
speak nonfiction.
(tag-tag)
see nonfiction
(tag-tag)
teach nonfiction.
(tag-tag)
bleed nonfiction.

my name is in exile.
(tell me nonfiction)
my name is an expat.
(tell me nonfiction)
my name is held captive.
(tell me nonfiction)
my name is a prisoner to you
(tell me nonfiction)
speak nonfiction.
(tag-tag)

Lyrics provided by LyricsEver.com
Q and Not U was a Washington, D.C. post-hardcore band from 1998-2005, signed with Dischord Records. Their sound, with fractured guitar leads and disorganized and inventive percussion, was a direct tribute to DC post-hardcore forefathers like Fugazi and Rites of Spring, but added noticably more art-damaged and rhythmic elements to their chaotic and emotional music. Members John Davis, Harris Klahr, Christopher Richards, and Matt Borlik formed the band in 1998. After Borlik's departure following the release of their first album, the band went on to record two more critically lauded LPs as a three-piece, exploring aspects of post-hardcore, dance-punk, and other disparate musical styles. Q and Not U disbanded in September 2005 after completing their touring commitments and a short farewell stand in Washington, D.C. Read more on Last.fm.
