Crown Of Thorns Lyrics - Wild! - Erasure

Fire of the sun 

Flowers crumble into dust 

The seed shall scatter and die 

Light in her eyes 

Pours black in their lives 

We gather 'round a funeral pyre 

And here we stand 

In old England's land 

Shattered glass on the ground 

There are no words 

To console this earth 

To restore old England's pride

Chorus: 

Never in a million or so years 

Did we suffer so much bloodshed 

Here comes the man 

With the warm and gentle hands 

Her name burnt into his brow 

Scorn in her eyes 

Her back to the cries 

We spit upon the life that never was 

And here we stand 

In old England's land 

The rose is choked by its thorn 

She will cast salt for wound 

Old England wears no crown

Chorus: 

Never in a million or so years 

We didn't want to hurt you 

But it's not over yet 

No never in a million or so years 

Did we suffer so much bloodshed
