Forgive me, father, for I have sinned
Find me guilty of the life I feel within
When I′m branded, this mark of shame
Should I look down disgraced
Or straight ahead and know that you must blame?
I am (I am) the secret
I am (I am) the sin
I am (I am) the guilty
And I am, I am the thorn within
Forgive me, father, for I have sinned
Find me guilty when true guilt is from within
So point your fingers, point right at me
For I am shadows and will follow you
One and the same are we
I am (I am) the secret
I am (I am) the sin
I am (I am) the guilty
And I am, I am the thorn within
I do your time, I take your fall
I'm branded guilty for us all
So point your fingers, point right at me
For I am shadows and will follow you
One and the same are we
I am (I am) your secrets
I am (I am) your sin
I am (I am) your guilty
And I am, I am the thorn within
I am the thorn within
I am the thorn within
I am the thorn within
I am the thorn within
I am the thorn within
