Heart of regret

---

(Low choir humming, distant distorted guitars swelling like a storm)

Choir:

Ooooh… ohhh…

Lost girl, lost girl… calling from the shadows…

---

I been walkin’ ‘round with this weight on my name,

Every step I take reminds me I’m the one to blame.

Mama cried soft, but I made it rain,

Turned a warm home cold, torn it all to shame.

You gave me light, and I brought back rain,

I never meant to carve your love with all my pain.

And now the memories hit like metal to bone—

Wish I helped more… wish I wasn’t so far gone.

---

I should’ve held you up instead of dragging you down,

Should’ve been your calm when everything spun ‘round.

But I was lost, and you paid the cost…

And I’m sorry now, for all the lines I crossed.

---

I’m just a daughter of a quiet storm,

A heart too cold, a guilt too warm.

And I know you deserved so much more—

More love, more peace, more open doors.

I’m tryna fix what I broke but standing in my own way,

But the past hits hard like drills to the brain.

I’m a failed daughter, tryna rewrite fate—

But I can’t undo the hurt I helped create.

---

You were reaching out while I was shutting down,

Your hands were steady, mine were shaking on the ground.

I pushed, I pulled, made the whole house quake,

Didn’t see the pieces I was making break.

You called my name soft—

I answered sharp.

Didn’t see your love

Til it was torn apart.

I see the scars now like echoes in the hall,

And I’d give anything just to rewind it all.

---

I should’ve been the light, should’ve stood by your side,

Should’ve talked instead of letting tears hide.

But I was young, and I ran from the truth—

Now I’m drowning in the things I never gave you.

---

I’m just a daughter of a quiet storm,

A heart too cold, a guilt too warm.

And I know you deserved so much more—

More love, more peace, more open doors.

I’m tryna fix what I broke but standing in my own way,

But the past hits hard like drills to the brain.

I’m a failed daughter, tryna rewrite fate—

But I can’t undo the hurt I helped create.

---

(Choir: Ooooh… let the chains fall…)

I can scream in the dark but it won’t change time,

These demons keep chanting every old crime.

Guitar wailing like the ghosts in the wall—

I’m the reason the light dimmed in that hall.

But I’m trying…

I’m trying…

To be more than the shadow I became.

---

I’m just a daughter of a quiet storm,

But I’m learning how to be reborn.

You gave me love I didn’t hold right—

Now I’m fighting to step back into the light.

I’m tryna heal the wounds I helped create,

Even if forgiveness comes too late.
