Such a cruel deception
False security
Nothing I can handle
Thinking I was free
Promises of fortune
Dreams of earthly gain
Never satisfying
Driving me insane

With my mind consumption
Filled with earthly fears
No, no, do consider heavenly affairs
Overtime seduction, nothing I can see
Coming to my senses
I'm no longer afraid

Suddenly I'm surrounded
By the lies that have confounded

Thorns, gonna break away
Thorns, over my head
Thorns, choking the life away
Thorns, just like you said

Will I seek my treasure
Today my heart will free
Will it last a lifetime, for eternity
Chasing empty visions
Blinded by desire
Thirsting for the pleasure
I found it's something higher

Got to begin to break free
From the chains that bind me

Thorns, gotta break away
Thorns, over my head
Thorns choking the life away
Thorns, just like you said

In the garden of my heart
I find the weeds have grown
Tangled up in false desire
I can't do this alone

With this strength I'll rise again
Leaning far behind
Walking into this freedom
Peace within my mind

Thorns, gotta break away
Thorns, over my head
Thorns, choking the life away
Thorns, just like you said

Thorns, gotta break away
Thorns, over my head
Thorns, choking the life away
Thorns, just like he said
