Thorns (Tokatag Conscript)

club banger, flute and violin, girls, atmospheric elements

V3.5

I remember the days, when my heart was laid bare, No walls, no defenses, just trust in the air. You walked right inside, like magic through stone, Past every guard I had, a love I'd never known. My armor was shattered, by a kiss, by a touch, I gave you my everything, maybe a little too much. I thought I was safe, in your tender embrace, But then the storm broke, leaving scars in its place.
	(Pre-Chorus) The pieces you left, they cut deep and they bled, A garden of sorrow, where my innocence fled. But from that raw pain, something new started to grow, A shield for my spirit, a truth you should know.
	(Chorus) Now I've got Thorns, darling, a lesson I learned, If you come close to hurt me, you'll surely get burned. Every wound you inflicted, a sharp point I wear, Touch me again with malice, and you'll feel the despair. So watch your step closely, don't you dare cross the line, My heart's got its defenses, a warning, a sign. These Thorns are for protection, a promise so clear, You hurt me again, and you'll pay with your fear.
	(Verse 2) I used to be open, a soft, gentle bloom, Unaware of the shadows, or impending doom. But the pain you delivered, it changed me inside, Now a fierce guardian, where vulnerability died. My spirit is tougher, my resolve is so keen, A fortress of resilience, a formidable queen. The blows that once broke me, now strengthen my core, And for every tear fallen, I've got something in store.
	(Bridge) You thought you could leave me, shattered and weak, But the strength of my spirit, is what I now seek. And if you return, with that look in your eye, Remember these Thorns, as your intentions draw nigh.
	(Chorus) 'Cause I've got Thorns, darling, a lesson I learned, If you come close to hurt me, you'll surely get burned. Every wound you inflicted, a sharp point I wear, Touch me again with malice, and you'll feel the despair. So watch your step closely, don't you dare cross the line, My heart's got its defenses, a warning, a sign. These Thorns are for protection, a promise so clear, You hurt me again, and you'll pay with your fear.
	(Outro) Yeah, you better watch your back, don't hurt me ever again. These Thorns are forever, until the very end. (Fade out with a lingering, slightly ominous synth note)
