[Verse]
You swore your love was a blessing
Not a blade
But your words cut deep
In the games you played
Smothered in guilt
Like a web I can’t escape
Your shadow wraps tight
Shaping me into your shape
[Chorus]
Oh mother
Your love's a venomous vine
Growing tighter
Choking what’s mine
Twisting roots
In the cracks of my soul
No escape
You’ve made control your goal
[Verse 2]
Your voice is sugar laced with acid and rust
A sweet betrayal
Breaking my trust
You spin the guilt like a threads on a loom
Decorate the shame and let it fill the room
[Chorus]
Oh mother
Your love's a venomous vine
Growing tighter
Choking what’s mine
Twisting roots
In the cracks of my soul
No escape
You’ve made control your goal
[Bridge]
I’ll burn the roots
I’ll poison the seeds
I’m no puppet for your manipulative deeds
Your lies will splinter
Crumble and fall
This is me ripping down your wall
[Chorus]
Oh mother
Your love's a venomous vine
No longer choking
I've drawn the line
Roots untwisted from the heart you stole
I’ve broken free
Reclaimed my soul
