Crown Of Thorns

The silence comes back round again

An emptiness where once were flames

When I fell upon your shoulders like the rain

You held me down to drown beneath the waves

It's over, almost over

This kind of passion can only end in pain

Like a crown of thorns

I can't wear this love around my heart

Though we've tried and failed a thousand times to lift the dark

I wear the memories you leave like scars

I don't know if I can keep on breathing

If I'm bleeding, bleeding from the start

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-oh [x2]

I feel that every time I breathe

The oxygen is suffocating me

It's not a sacrifice we can make

To be the king and queen of heartache

It's over, almost over

Like a crown of thorns

I can't wear this love around my heart

Though we've tried and failed a thousand times to lift the dark

I wear the memories you leave like scars

I don't know if I can keep on breathing

If I'm bleeding, bleeding from the start

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-oh [x2]

Parting is a sweet sorrow

But the marks only fade with time

I believe that there is life on the other side

It's over, almost over

Like a crown of thorns

I can't wear this love around my heart

Though we've tried and failed a thousand times to lift the dark

I wear the memories you leave like scars

I don't know if I can keep on breathing

If I'm bleeding, bleeding from the - If I'm bleeding, bleeding from the

Start

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-oh [x4]

The silence comes back round again...
