Thorns

Been away for just a month
Feels like the world is gone
Maybe for just this once
You won't have me wait so long

Thorns piercing through my skin
The pain is what I need
The blood and tears begin
This payment for my greed

Thorns of the deepest red
Protruding through the light
Thoughts of what's ahead
You know that this ain't right

You have no regret or guilt
Penance is what you lack
Can't you see what you've done
You've left his heart to crack

You've torn this gentle man
Somehow ripped his soul
He knows not happiness
Without that heart you stole

Thorns of the deepest red
Protruding through the light
Thoughts of what's ahead
You know that this ain't right

Tripping over untied laces
This man does not care
Watch the space between his fingers
Notice how it's bare

She sees her faults but much to late
This man is now stone cold
Waiting at this heavens gate
His story's left untold
