Thorn Within

Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned

Find me guilty of the life I feel within

When I’m branded, this mark of shame

Should I look down, disgraced, or straight ahead

…and know that you must blame!?

I am the secret

I am the sin

I am the guilty

And I am, I am the thorn within

Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned

Find me guilty when true guilt is from within

So point your fingers, point right at me

For I am shadows and will follow you

…one and the same are we!

I am the secret

I am the sin

I am the guilty

And I am, I am the thorn within

I do your time, I take your fall

I’m branded guilty for us all

So point your fingers, point right at me

For I am shadows and will follow you

…one and the same are we!

I am your secrets

I am your sin

I am your guilty

And I am, I am the thorn within…
