Veils of Silence

[Intro]  
In the silence of seven long years,  
Memories echo with forgotten tears,  
A wedding whispered on June's warm breath,  
But the bonds of blood spell a kind of death.  

[Verse 1]  
Daddy's voice replaying in my mind,  
"Your mother was flawed, leaving love behind,"  
He painted her gray, in shades of regret,  
Yet every word he spoke, hadn't I learned to forget?  

[Pre-Chorus]  
Underneath the laughter, a shadow remains,  
A story half-told, tangled in chains,  
But whose truth is this, whose pain do I hold?  
The weight of the past makes the future feel cold.  

[Chorus]  
When will you see?  
The child I have carries your name,  
But your love feels like a flickering flame,  
You taught me to fly, but left me to fall,  
Dancing on edges, I can’t hear your call.  

[Verse 2]  
Seven years gone, and I wore the regret,  
A bride in white, but with unfinished debt,  
Not an invite sent, no seat at the table,  
You built your own cage, and your father told you, I was rage.

[Pre-Chorus]  
You thought I was free, but chains never rust,  
I buried your voice in the ashes of trust,  
But here, at the altar, your heart holds the fear,  
When will we mend this? When will you hear?  

[Chorus]  
When will you see?  
The child I have, carries your name,  
But your love feels like a flickering flame,  
You taught me to fly, but left me to fall,  
Dancing on edges, I can’t hear your call.  

[Bridge]  
Mother, my mother, I’m torn in between,  
The words of my father, or the girl I could've been,  
You said I was yours, but where do I stand?  
With every new chapter, I'm losing my mind..  

[Outro]  
So here’s my heart, heavy with scars,  
Under the veil, I still reach for the stars,  
Mother, come closer, let’s bridge this divide,  
Or leave me with shadows where your love used to hide.
