We share the name and we share the heavy house
But i was the worker and you were the quiet mouse
I built the walls and i kept the winter out
While you were the only one they talked about
The table is set but there isn't a chair for me
The only branch that's dying on the family tree
I gave my life to keep the legacy alive
Just to find out that only the liars survive
The portraits are staring and the portraits are old
Watching as the story of the favorite is told
The blood is a shadow and the blood is a debt
The only kind of consequence that you haven't seen yet
I'm burning the roots and i'm burning the name
I don't want to be a part of your pathetic game
I am the definition of the ash in the hall
Ash in the hall
The kinship is over and the kinship is dead
Erasing every single little word that you said
Watching as the entire legacy begins to fall
Begins to fall
Don't call me sister and don't call me a friend
I'm the only version of the beautiful end
I'm stepping out the door and i'm stepping in the rain
Removing every single bit of the family pain
The progress is a journey that is steady and is true
Finding all the power in the version of the new
No more blood
No more ties
Kill the truth
End the lies
I'm burning the roots and i'm burning the name
I don't want to be a part of your pathetic game
I am the definition of the ash in the hall
Ash in the hall
The kinship is over and the kinship is dead
Erasing every single little word that you said
Watching as the entire legacy begins to fall
Begins to fall
I am my own blood
