about

Draco Lucius Malfoy

lyrics

Beating black just like my heart
A family threat, the darkest art
He has spoken
I am chosen

Sixteen years there goes my life
Not a chance I will survive
Is this where I start
To play my part?

But it’s not like I had a choice
It’s not like I had a voice
It’s not like I had a reason
To say no

I had one important task
A chance to prove my worth at last
If I die at least in glory is
How I’ll go

A curse upon the innocent
A poison in another’s hand
And I cannot mend
What is broken

Staring at my reflection
The face I see is not my own
I am bleeding
Please just leave me

But it’s not like I had a choice
It’s not like I had a voice
It’s not like I had a reason
To say no

I have one important task
A chance to prove my worth at last
If I die it’s still in glory is
How I’ll go

Mother forgive me I think I’ve failed
I’ve tried everything and
I don’t think I can go on
I am broken

A piece of the puzzle that don’t quite fit
The part of the story that I am in
Feels so wrong
I am broken

Take me back to the beginning

Spells and scars and right and wrong
A flash of green a mother’s song
And we’re too young
To be soldiers

I kneel before you not quite sure
I recognise the boy before
In my own home
It’s a war zone

Now I have to make a choice
Now’s the chance to use my voice
Maybe glory ain’t enough
Anymore

So I throw my wand and pray
Again today he’ll save the day
If I die on the right side
Is how I’ll go

Mother forgive me I think I’ve changed
I’ve tried everything and I
Don’t think I can go on
I have woken

My piece of the puzzle will never fit
Your side of the war and it breaks me just
To know that
I have chosen him

Can’t go back to the beginning
