the world's worst sister
How are you doing, my brother?
I can’t remember our last talk
Heard you found a good job with good pay
And a kind new girl who walks your way
I couldn’t be prouder — I truly am
You’re the only one who deserves to stand
In this family filled with pain and strife
You deserve a peaceful life
Brother, do you still remember when
We were just four, locked in that den?
The man left us in a dark, cold place
Nothing to eat, no light, no grace
Just a raw piece of meat and a broken board
But you taught me chess — your quiet reward
Brother, as long as I’ve known you here
You’ve never had joy, just held back tears
I was lucky to be your sister, true
If I were you, I’d have hated me too
We both hate him — we always did
Mom’s whole life, like Ymir’s, hid
She fell for a king with a heart so cruel
And we grew up breaking every rule
No Tết with joy, no peaceful day
Just broken sounds that never fade
That night I overheard those words
From the monster’s mouth — too loud, too hurt
I wanted to bite, to fight, to scream
To save you and Mom from that awful dream
I wished we both could run away
Leave behind that haunted place
Brother, I’ve been the worst, I know
You carried weights I couldn’t show
I called you crying, lost in fear
You said no word, just stayed near
No blame, no scold, no angry tone
Just silence — that cut to the bone
Brother, how are you doing today?
I wanna send you memes, make you laugh, play
Watch a movie like we used to do
Be your annoying sister — just us two
I’ve been horrible, I know that’s true
But you’ve always seen the real me through
I couldn’t even pick up the phone
Ashamed of all the mess I’ve sown
I read your texts, felt my shame
Felt I’d burned my chance to earn your name
I told myself I don’t deserve
Your love, your trust, your kindest words
A horrible sister, a daughter too
Maybe hell’s the place I’m due
But before I leave without regret
I wanna give what I can’t forget
A house for you and Mom by the sea
Just like you wished it’d always be
Then I’ll be gone with winter’s wind
Let all your pain fly out with me
I don’t need you to understand
Just know these nights, I held death’s hand
Brother, forgive me if you can
Take care of Mom — be her strong man
Protect her from the ghosts we knew
Protect her, the way I should’ve too
May your life be calm and kind
No more storms inside your mind
May your children never know
The pain we hid so deep below
They’ll grow with peace you’ve earned through fire
They’ll bloom with love — they’ll climb up higher
And if they ask about your past, your sister's name
Tell them I was the one to take the blame
Remember me as the worst, if that helps you heal
But I loved you the most — that part was real
