The Man Of Few Words, Written Letters That Spoke.

[Intro]  
In the dim-lit room, shadows fall,  
I stand alone, feeling small.  
Through whispers of the past, I hear his voice,  
A heart once heavy, now a silent choice.  
[Verse 1]  
They say he was cruel, a fierce storm at sea,  
A tidal wave of anger, never set free.  
Yet as I sift through the remnants of pain,  
I find a young boy who longed for a friend.  
[Pre-Chorus]  
The family gathered, no tears in their eyes,  
As I mourn the man behind the disguise.  
But in the attic, hidden away,  
A treasure of letters reveals a new day.  
[Chorus]  
Forgiveness danced in the flicker of a flame,  
As the echoes of sorrow called out his name.  
"I was too proud, too lost in my fight,  
But know that I loved you, even in the night."  
[Verse 2]  
Each letter I read, ink dripping with tears,  
Spoken confessions that vanquished my fears.  
He wrote of all the lost chances he had,  
The love he withheld, the good and the bad.  
[Pre-Chorus]  
The anger I carried, like a sword in my chest,  
Started to melt as I learned of his quest.  
For a glimpse of redemption before he would go,  
A tarnished old heart, now ready to show.  
[Bridge]  
"I’m sorry, my family, for all that I’ve done.  
Know in my silence, my sorrow had begun.  
If I could turn back the hands of the clock,  
I’d whisper ‘I care’—just a fragile, soft knock."  
[Chorus]  
Forgiveness danced in the flicker of a flame,  
As the echoes of sorrow called out his name.  
"I was too proud, too lost in my fight,  
But know that I loved you, even in the night."  
[Outro]  
As he took his last breath, the room filled with peace,  
With hearts that had mended, our burdens released.  
For in his farewell, I could finally see,  
The man he was trying to be,  
Not just the shadows that haunted this sea, 
but with his last pleas, “forgive me, for I am truly sorry, know that I’ll always hold your hearts, now this is where we’d part.”
