Whispers in the Thorns

(Verse 1) Eight summers spun their emerald thread, beneath these boughs where nightmares bled Moonlight painted, shadows deep, where trust and innocence fell asleep We danced like sprites, or so I thought, but poisoned vines, my spirit caught Your touch, a spider's silken snare, your words, a storm that choked the air (Chorus) Eight years entwined, a twisted vine, a love that strangled, left me to pine Moss-covered promises, lies that rot, etched in my soul, a painful knot The whispering pines mock your name, a haunting echo of burning shame I have to leave this poisoned wood, find a love that's gentle, understood (Verse 2) The babbling brook, a bitter song, of whispered threats that lingered long The whispering ferns, a chilling sound, of innocence lost on hallowed ground Each fallen leaf, a teardrop dried, of stolen dreams, a love denied But the ivy's grip won't hold me down, I'll tear it free, and wear a crown (Chorus) Eight years entwined, a twisted vine, a love that strangled, left me to pine Moss-covered promises, lies that rot, etched in my soul, a painful knot The whispering pines mock your name, a haunting echo of burning shame I have to leave this poisoned wood, find a love that's gentle, understood (Bridge) The moonbeams paint a path ahead, a silver thread where hope is bred A symphony of crickets' cries, a gentle nudge to open my eyes This forest holds a twisted past, but dawn awaits, a love built to last (Chorus) Eight years entwined, a twisted vine, a love that strangled, left me to pine Moss-covered promises, lies that rot, etched in my soul, a painful knot The whispering pines mock your name, a fading echo, a dying flame I have to leave this poisoned wood, find a love that's gentle, understood (Outro) With trembling steps, I walk away, towards the light of a brand new day The forest sleeps, its shadows flee, but scars remain, a memory I'll find a love that heals the pain, and wash away the bitter rain This broken heart will learn to soar, beneath a sky where I'm loved once more loved once more.. This broken heart will learn to soar, beneath a sky where I'm loved once more [fade out] [end]
