Your Curse Remains

There was a time I wore no scars
When loyalty cut clean, not hard and sharp
But hate was the blade you drove deep in my spine
Left me broken, a ghost walking blind
I'm done with your lies
You shattered the truth, and I realize
You left me bleeding
Left me to die

Venom fades, but the scar cuts through
A poison trace I can't undo
Buried deep, the wounds still grow

The wounds still grow

Do you hear the silence? Do you hear the storm?
Buried deep in the wreckage, beneath the stone
We walked through flames that would burn us whole
But you sold me out, left me in the cold
You were poison, a slow seeping death
But I'm reborn with every breath

Venom fades, but the scar cuts through
A poison trace I can't undo
Buried deep, the wounds still grow
In twisted roots, your curse remains
Feeding fire through my veins
Rotting alive in chains, I bear the pain

This rage is my armor, this pain is my blade
You can't hide from the monster that you made
Here's your fucking blade
I'm done with the shadows, done with the pain
I'll bury the past, but I'll never forget your name
Never forget your name

In the quiet I hear it, the ghost of who we were
Faded memories, a piece of me that longs to forget

Venom fades, but the scar cuts through
A poison trace I can't undo
Buried deep, the wounds still grow
In twisted roots, your curse remains
Feeding fire through my veins
Rotting alive in chains, I bear the pain

You took your shot, but I survived
