Trapped In Thorns

Verse 1

The sweet scent of jasmine

I prefer it over perfume

Bells are ringing and clashing

Soon to be facing the gloom

Pre-chorus 1

In memoriam

Of all the faded thrifts

I feel the breeze blow

Peaceful afterglow

Chorus 1

A thorn jungle I'm facing

(Memoriam)

Spikes are piercing, I feel them

(Memoriam)

I'm so much awaiting

(Memoriam)

The day I will surpass them

(Trapped in thorns)

I'm strangled, I'm fainting

(Memoriam)

Loop after loop I count them

(Memoriam)

I'm so much awaiting

(Trapped in thorns)

The day I will surpass them

Verse 2

I'm chained to fate

I'm straying, I drift

Spices, herbs and dates

Sensing nature's gifts

The salmon is on offer

I might buy a pound or two

Who could've known we would suffer

But then the war came through

Pre-chorus 2

In memoriam

Of all the faded thrifts

I feel the breeze blow

Peaceful afterglow

Bridge

Who lives behind this fence?

Why is there no one playing in this field?

What is behind this wall?

When is mommy gonna call?

Who's the one to blame?

Their dignity gets ignored!

Is all our hope in vain?

Could someone explain this?

Who adorns a fence in thorns?

Who profits from all of this?

Why are they victims of scorn?

Could someone explain this?!

Chorus 2

A thorn jungle I'm facing

(Memoriam)

Spikes are piercing, I feel them

(Memoriam)

I'm so much awaiting

(Memoriam)

The day I will surpass them

(Trapped in thorns)

I'm strangled, I'm fainting

(Memoriam)

Loop after loop I count them

(Memoriam)

I'm so much awaiting

(Trapped in thorns)

The day I will surpass them
