As @mikeskliar mentioned the couplet with “but we forget what's inconvenient,” really works. I like your exploration of memorials and heroism and how people find a version of someone to revere without looking too deeply into who they were.

Great interpretation of heroes! Also a fantastic comment about people living in our memories but keeing them alive through writing their name in the family bible. Quick melody and to the point!

great take on the prompt, and some real killer lines, with wisdom and insight. 'we forget whats inconvienent' and that last couplet are particularly well done. music and recording is good too- very sympathetic to the lyric- well done!

And we’ve all got our own legends, some shared sure but some personal heroes too! I like this, makes me think of my dad
