| The needle in the eye of the hurricane
|
| The poison in the font
|
| The nail in the coffin of the profane
|
| I am the lot
|
| Maniacal the fire
|
| That weaves inside my soul
|
| When dripping tongues of hate
|
| Envenomed, roll
|
| Like carpet bombs in vast bazaars
|
| My blood runs with the beasts
|
| Though no crescent, cross or wandering star
|
| Shalt witness my defeat
|
| Born a jackal in the Vatican
|
| To a loathsome flock
|
| I have crept behind the drapes
|
| And a wizard there is not
|
| Just a white flag blackened by
|
| Singing weapons that have led
|
| A faith that soon dominions over
|
| Desert kingdoms of the dead
|
| I smell the fleur du malcontent
|
| The hellish stench of Judas in the dozens
|
| Bouquets for greed and twisted law
|
| Handmaidens of a holy war
|
| Bring on a thousand roses more
|
| I am the thorn
|
| Tangled are the thickets
|
| That spare the virgin heart
|
| From the waking grasp of rapists
|
| In the dark
|
| Mountaineers that strive so far
|
| For a Heaven grown from reach
|
| That love herself is fabled
|
| To be missing from their peaks
|
| Save in one sole tower
|
| Where the presence of a rod
|
| Stays the sleeping beauty
|
| From the prying fingers of the mob
|
| I smell the fleur du malcontent
|
| The hellish stench of Judas in the dozens
|
| Bouquets for greed and twisted law
|
| Handmaidens of a holy war
|
| Bring on a thousand roses more
|
| I am the thorn
|
| I am the thorn
|
| I am the thorn
|
| I am the thorn
|
| I am the Spear of Longinus
|
| The sword of Damocles
|
| Kali up in arms, a bleeding sinus
|
| The hammer of the gods in the prophet’s teeth
|
| I am the thorn
|
| Saint disgustus, president evil
|
| Great white hopes of a shark eyed people
|
| Lights of the world now flicker and die
|
| Impaled in the race in the paling face
|
| Where forked tongues pricked the skies
|
| Choking on these words as I slither to their ear
|
| As lightning strikes their blinded minds
|
| I am not the hand of god
|
| I am the thorn
|
| I am not the hand of god
|
| I am the thorn
|
| Territorial thieves
|
| Ever stealing thunder for religious causes
|
| I will bring you all down to your knees
|
| And fuck you over
|
| Bouquets for greed and twisted law
|
| Handmaidens of a holy war
|
| Bring on a thousand roses more
|
| I am the thorn
|
| I am the thorn
|
| I am the thorn
|
| I am the thorn |
