Broken Legacy

I reach for the sound of your heart,

But the silence it tears me apart.

Your laughter was Fire now just smoke,

In every corner your Ghost awoke.

Your photograph begins to fade,

The past is something I can’t escape.

Every heartbeat feels the same,

You’re gone, but you still whisper my name.

I keep your voice inside my head,

A lullaby for the living dead.

You fade in my veins,

Like poison, like rain.

You’re the ache I can’t erase,

The pain i am embrace.

Your heartbeat’s the ghost

That drags me below—

I’m alive in your grave,

And I can’t let go.

The Silence wears your Crown,

Why did you left me all alone.

Your jacket still hangs by the door,

Like you might walk in—like before.

Every prayer just cuts too deep,

I see you every time I sleep.

You fade in my veins,

Like poison, like rain.

You’re the ache I can’t erase,

The pain i am embrace.

Your heartbeat’s the ghost

That drags me below—

I’m alive in your grave,

And I can’t let go.

WHY DID YOU LEAVE ME HERE TO BLEED?!

PLEASE I NEED YOU FOR THE LEAD!

FATHER—CAN YOU HEAR MY SCREAM?!

I'M STILL YOUR BROKEN LEGACY!

(echo fades into soft whisper)

Broken… Legacy.

You’re the blood that stains my name,

The echo I can’t escape.

Every heartbeat burns the same—

This pain’s my inheritance,

Your broken legacy.

(fades into a soft whisper)

You fade in my veins,

You fade in my veins…

And I carry what’s left of you

In me—
