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
        So I look down disgraced for saying I know that you must feel
        
        I am, I am the secret
        I am, I am the sin
        I am, I am the guilty
        And I am, I am the thorn within
        
        Forgive me father
        For I have sinned
        Find me guilty with true guilt that's from within
        
        So point your fingers
        Point right at me
        For I am shadows and will follow you whatever see my way
        
        I am, I am the secret
        I am, I am the sin
        I am, 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 a soul
        
        So point your fingers
        Point right at me
        For I am shadows and will follow you whatever see my way
        
        I am, I am your secrets
        I am, I am your sin
        I am, I am your guilty
        And I am, I am the thorn within
        I am the thorn within
