[Verse]
Crowds gather streets turn to stone
A man walks silent blood from his throne
Hands tied tight cuts on his skin
Mocking laughter from where it begins
[Prechorus]
The whip cracks the sky splits
Flesh torn dust spits
[Chorus]
Crown of thorns digging in deep
A king betrayed for thirty cheap
Blood runs red tears won't sleep
Crown of thorns oh crown of grief
[Verse 2]
Steps heavy the cross on his back
Splinters bite where the skin has cracked
Eyes meet his but they turn away
No savior here just a man they flay
[Prechorus]
The nails pierce the earth screams
Pain reigns through broken dreams
[Chorus]
Crown of thorns digging in deep
A king betrayed for thirty cheap
Blood runs red tears won't sleep
Crown of thorns oh crown of grief
