Pull the Thorns from Your Heart - Senses Fail

I don’t want to be afraid of this life anymore

I don’t want to be suffocated by the weight

Who was that person I was pretending to be?

Silent compassion break these chains of misery

Scared to death of being vulnerable

So I did everything I could to put the walls up

I locked myself and held myself in a cell of shame

Screaming for a fucking change

Pull the thorns from your heart

Pull the thorns from your heart

I tried so hard to run away from the truth

I fucking hated myself so I abused

My soul, my heart, my body

For the sexuality I didn’t choose

Pull the thorns from your heart

Pull the thorns from your heart

Devastated by shame

I was so entrenched in pain

I found that hell

Is the absence to loving self

I’ve been looking for a pearl this whole time

It’s been right in my chest

I went diving to the depths of hell once

But I only found death

And it said to me

«Don't be afraid of your end

Be bold, be authentic

Be brave enough to love again»

They said

Pull the thorns from your heart

To wander in the fields of flowers

Pull the thorns from your heart

To wander in the fields of flowers

Pull the thorns from your heart

To wander in the fields of flowers

Pull the thorns from your heart

Give up a little

Gain a little piece

Empty yourself

Become eternity

I will not die

I will not die in shame

I will not die

I will not die in shame
