Got your branches at the root
But all that blooms is bitter fruit
Cut your branches at the root
It only gave me bitter fruit
I was conceived in a red rage from a wild love
I am the seed of a dead age, gone viral
Those feelings I've tried to shake all my life long
But the demons I'm keeping are hard to face
When you hide them so long
I got you, got you at the root
I gotta save my soul from the bad in you
I got you, got you through & through
You only ever gave me bitter fruit
Oh and it grew like a shockwave
And I was blind, silent
The fruit that your love gave poisoned my mind
I got your branches at the root
I gotta save my soul from the things you do
I cut your branches through & through
But still I only taste that bitter fruit
Down to the bone
All my love is cut in a single blow
Gone, and I know
All my love is cut in the seed I sow
I could pray, but can't you see
The kind of things I pray for are cursing me
I could pray, but can't you see
The kind of things I pray for, the kind of things I need
Ha
I got your branches at the root
You only ever gave me bitter fruit
I cut your branches through & through
But still I only taste that bitter fruit
I could pray, but can't you see
The kind of things I pray for are cursing me
I could pray, but can't you see
The kind of things I pray for, the kind of things I need
