[00:11.33]You try your hardest to leave the past alone.
[00:15.93]This crooked posture is all you’ve ever known.
[00:20.98]It is the consequence of living in between
[00:25.97]The weight of family and the pull of gravity.
[00:30.89]You are so much more than your father’s son.
[00:37.93]You are so much more than what I’ve become.
[00:50.79]Long before you were born there was light
[00:55.57]Hidden deep in these young, unfamiliar eyes.
[01:00.41]A million choices, though little on their own,
[01:05.56]Become the heirloom of the heaviness you’ve known.
[01:09.81]You are so much more than your father’s son.
[01:17.32]You are so much more than what I’ve become,
[01:28.21]What I’ve become,
[01:35.47]What I’ve become.
[01:40.87]You pressed rewind
[01:42.73]For the thousandth time
[01:45.20]When the tapes wore through.
[01:50.04]So you memorized
[01:52.25]Those unscripted lines,
[01:55.18]Desperate for some kind of clue:
[02:00.08]When the scale tipped,
[02:02.15]When you inherited
[02:04.67]A fight that you were born to lose.
[02:10.38]It’s not your fault,
[02:11.89]No, it’s not your fault,
[02:14.00]I put this heavy heart in you.
[02:19.01]I put this heavy heart in you.
[02:29.15]You remind me of who I could have been,
[02:33.99]Had I been stronger and braver way back then.
[02:38.87]A million choices, though little on their own,
[02:43.87]Became the heirloom of the heaviness we’ve known.
[02:48.11]You are so much more than your father’s son.
[02:55.89]You are so much more than the wars you’ve won.
[03:03.09]You are so much more than your father’s son.
[03:10.46]You are so much more than what I’ve become.
