Motherland

I've never known you for what you are I thought I wouldn't recognise you After all this time We grew apart I guess it's me that changed It sickens me to know That you have stayed the same Deteriorate Why are you like this? Were you always like this? Now I see you for what you are I hate to love you I love to hate you But I can't resist to come back to you I hate to love you I love to hate you And I hate myself Because I want to be with you If I had stayed with you You would have stifled me An overbearing parent That corrodes their child And when I disobey you You're always out to get me So far away and you still punish me I hate to love you I love to hate you But I can't resist to come back to you I hate to love you I love to hate you How can I forgive you after all you've done? I hate to love you I love to hate you I've tried so hard to let you go I hate to love you I love to hate you And I hate myself I still want to be with you Mother You were supposed to protect me But all you did is neglect me Pushed me away from your arms To other lands Mother You never showed any mercy The tears on my face burn me You've always murdered your children Now's my turn No more moments of silence in my head No divine intervention to save you from me Guilt and grief turn to anger, a hurricane I just want to destroy you and set me free I hate to love you I love to hate you You're still pretending that nothing's wrong I hate to love you I love to hate you You'll never change and now I know Fooled me once Shame on you Fooled me twice You're dead to me You're dead to me You're dead to me I'll never forgive you You're dead to me
