Heirloom

[00:11.04] You try your hardest to leave the past alone
[00:16.22] This crooked posture is all you've ever known
[00:20.99] It is the consequence of living in between
[00:25.55] The weight of family and the pull of gravity
[00:30.82] You are so much more than your father's son
[00:36.92] You are so much more than what I've became
[00:42.84] Long before you were born there was light
[00:54.78] Hidden deep in these young, unfamiliar eyes
[00:59.94] A million choices, though little on their own
[01:04.59] Become the heirloom of the heaviness you've known
[01:09.94] You are so much more than your father's son
[01:17.34] You are so much more than what I've become
[01:28.79] What I've become
[01:35.99] What I've become
[01:40.85] You pressed rewind
[01:42.94] For the thousandth time
[01:45.41] When the tapes wore through
[01:50.13] So you memorized
[01:52.66] Those unscripted lines
[01:55.25] Desperate for some kind of clue
[01:59.35] When the scale tipped
[02:01.90] When you inherited
[02:04.76] A fight that you were born to lose
[02:07.80] It's not your fault
[02:11.59] No, it's not your fault
[02:13.76] I put this heavy heart in you
[02:16.68] I put this heavy heart in you
[02:23.97] You remind me of who I could have been
[02:34.32] Had I been stronger and braver way back then
[02:39.93] A million choices, though little on their own
[02:44.67] Became the heirloom of the heaviness we've known
[02:49.56] You are so much more than your father's son
[02:55.84] You are so much more than the wars you've won
[03:03.36] You are so much more than your father's son
[03:12.21] You are so much more than what I've become
[03:22.56]
