Forgive me father

For I have sinned

Find me guilty of the life I feel within



When I'm branded

This mark of shame

So I look down disgraced for saying I know that you must feel



I am, I am the secret

I am, I am the sin

I am, I am the guilty

And I, I am the thorn within



Forgive me father

For I have sinned

Find me guilty with true guilt that's from within



So point your fingers

Point right at me

For I am shadows and will follow you whatever see my way



I am, I am the secret

I am, I am the sin

I am, I am the guilty

And I, I am the thorn within



I do your time

I take your fall

I'm branded guilty for a soul



So point your fingers

Point right at me

For I am shadows and will follow you whatever see my way



I am, I am your secrets

I am, I am your sin

I am, I am your guilty

And I, I am the thorn within

I am the thorn within
