Xt Echo - Broken [official audio]

I write the lyrics ai does the rest #music #song #newmusic #hit #pop #rap #remix Lyrics: You loved me mean, then loved me sweet A blade in silk, a kiss in bleach Your pretty mouth said, “stay, don’t leave” Then flung my name through a family tree I wore your ash like good luck charms Held your storm in my bare arms You said, “Be brave, be hard, be kind” But kindness bled out every time When the night passes, what stays on my skin? A bruise of your truth and the shape of my sin They told me, “Stand tall when they want you to fold” I stood in the fire and learned to go cold I watched good men get judged by shade By a glance, by a grin, by a last name made Watched small hate grow teeth in a room Watched love get dragged to the edge of the tomb You said, “We’re fine,” but your silence lied Your hand on my face, your fear inside I was your shelter, your match, your wall Then you blamed the smoke when the ceiling fell tall “Don’t become what broke you,” I heard in my head While my rage wore boots and kicked in my chest “Walk like a king through a hall of scars” So I did, with blood on my alibis After it all I ask, what stays on the glass? Your soft little lies and my hard red wrath You wanted a saint, I gave you a ghost Now you get the truth, and it hurts the most I hate how I miss you, hate how I don’t Hate that I wanted the fire, then choked Hate that your love was a lock and a key Hate that I still hear you under my teeth “Be the calm in the storm,” my mother used to say But storms don’t ask, they just take and take “Be so good they can’t call you small” So I learned to bleed and still stand tall You called me your ruin, your fever, your crime I called you my lesson, my last thin line If love is a cage, then I know why it shakes If hate is a wound, then I know how it breaks I told you I'm done, I’m not your prayer I’m the cold hard truth in the split-air stare I loved you savage, I loved you wrong Now I bite my name and I keep moving on “Hold your head up” — I hear it again “Nothing survives if it bows to them” I’m not healed, I’m just here, still raw Still loving too hard with a broken jaw It keeps me up, I’m still awake Still learning the edge of the heart I break Still learning the weight of a word like “home” Still learning how to let hell go home
