A MAN OF THORNS

I've betrayed you my love
and you still love me
yes! you still love me

I've caused the storms 
cause your heart to cry
because you never saw the demons
I had hidden inside 

I deceived your trust
I've betrayed your love
and my heart is not sad
My emotions does not 
feel the need to repent 

I have wounded you
With a calculated thrust 
into your heart
With the blade of deception 
Yet you remain faithful 

And even though 
my conscience screams
Repent! Repent! Repent!
I cannot free myself 
from the desire to decieve.
