Bitter Fruit

Cut your branches at the root
 That long have grown that bitter fruit
 Cut your branches at the root
 That only gave me bitter fruit
 I was conceived in a red cage, 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 gotta cut you at the root
 I gotta save my soul from the bad in you
 I gotta cut you through and through
 You only ever gave me bitter fruit
 Oh and it grew like a shockwave
 And I was blindsided, oh oh
 The fruit that your love gave
 Poisoned my mind up, oh oh
 I cut your branches at the root
 I gotta save my soul from the things you do
 I cut your branches through and through
 But still I only taste that bitter fruit
 Down to the bone
 All my love was cut in a single blow
 Gone, and I know
 All my love was cut in the seed I sowed
 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
 I cut your branches at the root
 That only ever gave me bitter fruit
 I cut your branches through and 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
 Cut your branches at the root
 That long have grown that bitter fruit
 Cut your branches at the root
 That only gave me bitter fruit
 Cut your branches at the root
 That long have grown that bitter fruit
 Cut your branches at the root
 That only gave me bitter fruit
