Black rays spew down from the heavens Burning rampant through the flaws of man Holy servants sworn to guide us towards salvation Now fallen angels leading us to sin, leading us to sin ♪ This fractured sect pierces through our conscience Deliverance promised to stop our dark descent This crowning vision, wrapped so tight around us Chokes us all, as the thorns dig in, as the thorns dig in ♪ Symbolic burden of pain We wash our hands of your stain ♪ This crown will fall and choke us all A noose of thorns, a noose of scorn When judgement calls Will you be absolved? Will you find your way? Or be strangled by your faith forever ♪ Constrict and tighten around our necks Bleeding wounds, drown from within Poisoned souls forever damned A noose of thorns to keep us pure
