Phinehas - Thorns

Off the album 'The Fire Itself', available everywhere — http://phinehas.ffm.to/fireitself

Your song was new when I sang
The only reassurance I've had is pain
Oh I remember the palms of your hands
How they glowed from within
Did my scars truly heal
Or are they only hidden beneath my skin
My love unrequited because
My trust remains to be given
I was a king of earth, but a king no more
I was a king of earth, when your voice shook the floor
"Accept that you suffer
Let go of your throne
Even when you are alone
Beautiful vines
On a crown that you mourn
To find trust requires thorns"
Lead me to the water but all is unclearIn new verses,
I only hear what I want to hear
The only reassurance I've had is pain
