Prompt / Lyrics
[Acoustic + Piano Intro – soft, fragile] Met you at fourteen, two ghosts learning how to breathe, You were the anchor in a world that never cared for me. We shared a roof, shared our fears, shared the nights we'd disappear, You were my home… even when the home wasn't here. [Verse 1 – clean, trembling] Then life called your name and you answered it right, You found love, built a life, chased a brand new sunrise. I stayed back in the shadows where we used to dream, Now I'm talking to the walls just to feel anything. [Pre-Chorus – rising emotion] And it’s no fault of yours— I swear it on the bones I carry every day. I just didn’t have anyone left When you finally walked your own way. [Chorus – soaring, melodic metalcore] So this is the letter I never meant to write, The words I buried deep in the quiet of the night. “I’ll always have your back,” yeah, I meant every line— Even in this act, you were the best part of my life. I still love you, brother, even through the darkness… And I’m sorry for this— I was never meant to be harmless. [Verse 2 – emotional rasp] You moved away, built a world I always hoped you'd find, I stayed behind with the ghosts running circles in my mind. Every laugh we shared echoes like a memory on fire, A warmth I can't reach as the flames climb higher. [Breakdown – screamed] THIS ISN’T BLAME— THIS IS JUST WHERE I BREAK. NO FAULT OF YOURS, JUST THE WEIGHT I CAN’T TAKE. BUT I NEVER STOPPED LOVING YOU, NOT FOR ONE DAMN DAY. [Piano Bridge – whispered, vulnerable] If my voice ever reaches you across the miles, Know you carried me farther than anyone in my life. You saved me once… maybe more times than I can say, And I’m sorry you have to hear me fade away. [Guitar Solo – emotional, melodic, soaring bends] [Final Chorus – raw, powerful] So this is the letter I never meant to write, The truth bleeding out in the silence of the night. “I’ll always have your back,” yeah, that still holds true— Even as I fall, my last thought is you. You were my brother, my shelter in the abyss… And I’m sorry for this… I was just too tired to exist. [Outro – acoustic whisper] But you made my story worth the time I was in it. Don’t forget me… Not all at once.
