THORN OF LOVE

MAMA! I’M HOLLOW AS YOUR MAN
THOUGH I NEVER TRIED TO BE THE SAME
I WANTED TO BE AN HONEST MAN
SO I REALLY HAD TO WALK AWAY

BUT SORRY MOM! I GOT STARYED
ALL I LEARNT IS HOW TO FRAY
SET THE NOOSE AND GET THE PREY
IS THE ONLY GAME I USED TO PLAY

MAMA LOOK! MY HANDS ARE RED
I HAVE GROWN A ROSE OF HATE
STARS ARE GRIM & SUN IS BLACK
MOON HAS ECLIPSED ALL MY FACE

MAMA! I’M HOLLOW AS YOUR MAN
PIERCE THE THORN OF LOVE AGAIN
BLEED ME NOW SO I COULD CHANGE
I WANNA BE YOUR SON AGAIN.

I'M STANDING IN THE POURING RAIN
TRYING TO WASH MY UGLY STAINS
DON'T WISH ME LUCK, DONT WISH ME PAIN
IT SEEMS THAT I AM NEAR THE END
SO OPEN UP YOUR ARMS AGAIN
ITS ME, IN THE GUISE OF HOLLOW MAN
SO PIERCE THE THORN OF LOVE AGAIN
BLEED ME NOW SO I COULD CHANGE
I WANNA BE YOUR SON AGAIN
PIERCE THE THORN OF LOVE AGAIN
I'LL TRY TO BE YOUR SON AGAIN
I'LL TRY TO BE YOUR SON AGAIN.
