Heirloom 歌词

You try your hardest to leave the past alone This crooked posture is all you’ve ever known It is the consequence of living in between The weight of family and the pull of gravity You are so much more than your father’s son You are so much more than what I’ve become Long before you were born there was light Hidden deep in these young, unfamiliar eyes A million choices, though little on their own Become the heirloom of the heaviness you’ve known You are so much more than your father’s son You are so much more than what I’ve become What I’ve become What I’ve become You pressed rewind For the thousandth time When the tapes wore through So you memorized Those unscripted lines Desperate for some kind of clue When the scale tipped When you inherited A fight that you were born to lose It’s not your fault No, it’s not your fault I put this heavy heart in you I put this heavy heart in you You remind me of who I could have been Had I been stronger and braver way back then A million choices, though little on their own Became the heirloom of the heaviness we’ve known You are so much more than your father’s son You are so much more than the wars you’ve won You are so much more than your father’s son You are so much more than what I’ve become
