Crown of Thorns Lyrics

pull the knife into my chest to dispossess me of nature's belongings
drain the cup of blood to the dregs and drip it into the dry streambed
and my sins will be forgiven,
my selfish heart will fall and merge with the roots of forest's trees
how long are we able to consume without giving?
how long are we able to bear the ruination of our sole home?
tear my limbs up and bury them in the rainless soil
my flesh is nourishing thousands of sprinkling flowers
and my sins will be forgiven,
my selfless heart will fall and merge with the roots of forest's trees
my sacrificing crown of thorns is sinking into soil and I am serving again
