Osiah - Echoes

I remember the day my hero died
I watched as his hands obscured his face
Hiding from me for he knew, his actions lead to disgrace

So he never saw me go
I left that kingdom
Without looking back
And I swear my life is better without you
But what am I living for now?

All I ever did was to make you proud
But now I can't wait until you're in the fucking ground

Even worms will feast on kings
At the end of all things
So when only words remain
Over time the echoes will fade
Into sweet silence

A thousand suns would wither and die
Before I found the words to describe
The scum that you are
So I'll save my time and implement the hush
Upon my furious mind

But there's a monster that controls me
Created from memories of family
As of late I've tried to conquer this
I've been caged with him for far too long
He knows every ounce of me
For I created him to be me
A front for a terrified beaten child
Someone I could just be proud of

For your memory holds power
So to end your reign
And to ensure you'll cease to remain
I will forget your name
I will forget your name
So here I am, letting the echoes fade
