Crimson Veil - Broken Glass Inheritance Lyrics




[Verse 1]
Daddy was a shadow in these Birmingham streets
Blood on his hands, secrets beneath the sheets
Mama tried to shield me from the truth she knew
But darkness has a way of bleeding right through
Twenty-three years thinking he was just gone
'Til I found those headlines, now the damage is done

[Chorus]
Shattered glass on the floor of my mind
Each piece shows me what you left behind
Your violence runs through these veins of mine
But I refuse to let your darkness shine
(I refuse to let your darkness shine)

[Verse 2]
Council estate stories, whispers in the night
'Bout the man who raised hell and never made right
Found your mugshot faded in yesterday's news
Gang ties and alibis, that's the path you choose
Now I'm standing in mirrors seeing pieces of you
Praying that your demons won't come breaking through

[Bridge]
They say blood is thicker than water
But yours left stains I can't wash away
Every fragment of this broken mirror
Shows the price that your son had to pay

[Chorus]
Shattered glass on the floor of my mind
Each piece shows me what you left behind
Your violence runs through these veins of mine
But I refuse to let your darkness shine
(I refuse to let your darkness shine)

[Verse 3]
Mama's tears could fill an ocean of pain
While you were out there playing your wicked game
Now I'm piecing together this broken man
Trying to build something you never can
Yeah, I got your eyes and I got your name
But that's where the story ends, I ain't playing your game

[Outro]
I'm picking up these pieces one by one
Cutting my hands but I won't come undone
Your blood might flow but I'm not your son
This cycle of pain is finally done
(It's finally done)
