Prompt / Lyrics
Sirens in my head Walls closing in I still hear his voice When I try to sleep The house was breathing fear that night Shadows shaking under broken light Hands that raised me, now clenched in hate Love turned loaded, sealed our fate Mama screaming, time stood still I felt my heart beg my hands to kill Every second screaming don’t be late One move wrong and we’re in the grave I didn’t want the crown of blame Didn’t ask to choose who stays I was backed into the corner With no god left to pray I pulled the trigger but it still pulls me Every night, every breath, it won’t set me free I saved our lives but I lost my soul Now I’m digging graves inside my skull Tell me Would you hesitate? Would you freeze? Would you do the same if it was him or me? I live, but I don’t feel whole I wear the blood I didn’t choose His eyes weren’t his, they were empty glass A stranger wearing my brother’s past I screamed his name, he didn’t hear Just rage, just death, just fear The moment cracked like a breaking bone I watched my future overload I keep replaying different ends Where nobody dies, and we pretend If I waited one more breath Would we all be dead instead? Is mercy measured in seconds Or just another word for regret? I pulled the trigger but it still pulls me Every night, every breath, it won’t set me free I saved our lives but I lost my soul Now I’m digging graves inside my skull Tell me Would you hesitate? Would you freeze? Would you do the same if it was him or me? I live, but I don’t feel whole I wear the blood I didn’t choose I SEE HIS FACE WHEN I CLOSE MY EYES I HEAR HIS VOICE ASKING WHY WHY WAS I THE ONE LEFT STANDING WHY DOES SURVIVAL FEEL LIKE A SIN I DID WHAT I HAD TO SO WHY AM I STILL BLEEDING If there’s a place where souls reset Where love exists without regret Tell him I never wanted this Tell him I still call his name If there’s a god, he’s silent now Or maybe he was in the ground Watching me become the thing I swore I’d never be I pulled the trigger but it still pulls me Through every dream where I can’t breathe I saved our lives but I lost my soul Now I’m fighting ghosts I’ll never hold Tell me Would you hesitate? Would you freeze? Would you do the same if it was him or me? I live, but I don’t feel whole I wear the blood I didn’t choose I didn’t win I just survived And some nights I wish I hadn’t
