The Thorn Within

Forgive me father

For I have sinned

Find me guilty of the life I feel within

And 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, 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 me

One and the same are we

I am the secret

I am the sin

I am the guilty

And I, 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 the secret

I am the sin

I am the guilty

And I, I am the thorn within
