I Forgot How to Grieve

Verse 1

Born beneath a twilight sky

Gold and incense at my door

My parents smiled and I believed

Time would spare us evermore

Laughter faded season after season

Friends became the falling stars

I stayed the same while they all vanished

Watching ages leave their scars

Pre-Chorus

I searched the vaults for any answer

Buried deep in dusty scrolls

All they gave me was a sentence

Alicorns endure alone

Chorus

I forgot how to grieve

I forgot how to weep

Shadow wrapped around my heart

And buried me to sleep

I forgot how to grieve

I forgot how to weep

The prince became the monster

In the silence cold and deep

Verse 2

Crystal climbing up my legs

Stripping power from my horn

They came with relics from my parents

Weapons from before I was born

I laughed and called them foolish

But the light had found its way

The darkness burned and I was standing

Not a monster just afraid

Pre-Chorus

My father's sword fell to the marble

I could finally see my face

Every wound I caused was screaming

Every ghost within this place

Chorus

I forgot how to grieve

I forgot how to weep

Shadow wrapped around my heart

And buried me to sleep

I forgot how to grieve

I forgot how to weep

The prince became the monster

In the silence cold and deep

Bridge

I'm sorry (sorry)

I'm sorry (sorry)

Those two words inside the stone

A thousand years to hear them echo

A thousand years alone

Chorus

I forgot how to grieve

I forgot how to weep

But moonlight found my broken hands

And let me finally sleep

I forgot how to grieve

I forgot how to weep

The Black Star burned to embers

And the prince came back to keep

Outro

I'm sorry

I'm sorry

I'm sorry
