Thorn Lyrics

Pride followed by lies
You're tearing down these walls
I've built up in my mind
The truth will come and set me free
Cause all these fears can't follow me
Into the place I want to be again, again
There's this thorn in my side
That I've been trying hard to hide
It eats at me and my defeat
Is coming quickly if I can't see
The error of my ways
I'm slowly digging my own grave
I long to find the voice inside
That's guided me through the darkest nights

Pride followed by lies
You're tearing down these walls
I've built up in my mind
The truth will come and set me free
Cause all these fears can't follow me
Into the place I want to be again, again
Now I've grown so tired of treading water
Drag the lake, you'll find me here
Taken down by years and years
Of searching for my place
A new day, an old face
Watching every step I take
Voices keeping me awake
Pride followed by lies
You're tearing down these walls
I've built up in my mind
The truth will come and set me free
Cause all these fears can't follow me
Into the place I want to be again, again

And all this pressure bearing down on me
Comes from the weight of the angst in all these memories
You've taken something I can't let you keep
So I will fight with every ounce of might inside of me

To bring us back to where it all began
Reaching out for a familiar hand
(I want you to see what this does to me)
