- Thorn Within Lyrics / with translationsForgive 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, 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
I am the thorn within
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
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 your secrets
I am your sin
I am your guilty
And I am, I am the thorn within
I am the thorn within
