Crown Of Thorns

Citation: W. J. Bryant

 

My crown of thorns

Has left scars upon your feet

A rose begins with nothing

Oh, don't you tread on me

 

I’ll be the judge

Let me be judged

A light begins in heaven

Only heathens under me

 

So, if I stand on water

What will you call me?

My crown meant nothing

There’s pain in hypocrisy

 

You shall not press down upon the brow of labor

This crown of thorns,

You shall not crucify mankind

Upon a cross of gold

 

I‘ve washed the stones

I’ve bled on sheets

The Church is not my Wisdom

There’s just no one left to bleed

 

Can't you see?

You’ve scarred me

And I meant nothing

I want to set you free

 

So, if I stand on water

Will you talk to me?

Or create another martyr

With thorns above his cheeks

 

My crown of thorns

Has left scars upon your feet

A rose begins with nothing

Oh, don't you tread on me

  

Don’t walk all over

You can hardly speak

I tread emotion

You stumble ‘cause you’re weak

 

Because you’re weak

You tread on me

I cannot speak

You tread on me
