Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You drank cold coffee Never ran late Always did my hair Stitched flowers onto the pockets of my jeans You held your breath at every concert Cheering loudly from the back Smiled through all those broken evenings Never let the seams go black [Chorus] You were my first hero Cape made out of tired hands Holding up the sky So I could learn to stand Every scar you kept in silence Every truth you carried through Mama When I say I’m brave I mean I learned it all from you [Verse 2] You fixed my broken with silver tape Laughed and called it “a work of art” Paid the bills at midnight Traced my future in the dark You folded every fear I had Like clothes into a drawer Said “I love you to the moon and back” [Chorus] You were my first hero Cape made out of tired hands Holding up the sky So I could learn to stand Every scar you kept in silence Every truth you carried through Mama When I say I’m strong I mean I’m just a piece of you
