"The Thorns" lyrics

"The Thorns"

Blind now with time
And technology
Illusions are crimes
And soon you will pay

Innocence denied
Because your fantasies
And your deepest thoughts
Are now on display

Your pain will bring shame
As thousands replay
Voyeurs to your disgrace
In multiple ways

Casting yourself as target, you destroy
Frailness and purity you've lost so long before
Armed with wisdom and saturation incomparable
The fight for excuses has begun but the battle is lost

The thorns
The sting of one thousand cuts
The thorns
The quills confine drawing the blood

Witnessed by the world
Star of the spectacle
The change will engage
Exposure now staged

Crumbling
All that surrounds you
Fading into shock
This jolting distress will crush you in two

The thorns
The sting of one thousand cuts
The thorns
The quills confine drawing the blood
