Lyrics by Kaien Von Rode © Ahhh... [Verse 1] He built a temple in the dead of night, dead of night A fragile haven fading from the light. He offered up his pulse, his opened veins, Ahhh... Now nothing but the freezing mist remains. The velvet shadows turn to endless grey, Since she, like a phantom, slipped away. [Pre-Chorus] Now every echo is a razor blade, a razor blade Inside the crypt of love that they had made. He bows his heavy head and softly mourns [Chorus] This is MY Throne of Thorns, my bitter prize, A kingdom built on whispered, gothic lies. Her venom digging deep beneath my skin, A tragic dance that I could never win. I bleed for every dark vow we had sworn, Bound forever to MY Throne of Thorns. Ahhh... [Verse 2] He walks the empty halls of monochrome, monochrome A raven circling his abandoned home. No holy light can pierce this stained-glass cage, He reads the sorrow on the final page. The blackest roses withered into dust, A monument of pale and broken trust. [Pre-Chorus] Now every echo is a razor blade, a razor blade Inside the crypt of love that they had made. He bows his heavy head and softly mourns [Chorus] This is MY Throne of Thorns, my bitter prize, A kingdom built on whispered, gothic lies. Her venom digging deep beneath my skin, A tragic dance that I could never win. I bleed for every dark vow we had sworn, Bound forever to MY Throne of Thorns. [Verse 3] No mortal spell can pull him from the dark, She left a cryptic and a cruel mark. So cruel... He locked the iron gates, threw out the key, A shadow fading in eternity. It's just a frozen heart that drags him down, The ghost-king of a desolated town. [Pre-Chorus] Where every echo is a razor blade, a razor blade Inside the ruins of the love they made. He bows his heavy head and softly mourns [Chorus] This is MY Throne of Thorns, my bitter prize, A kingdom built on whispered, gothic lies. Her venom digging deep beneath my skin, A tragic dance that I could never win. I bleed for every dark vow we had sworn, Bound forever to MY Throne of Thorns. [Outro] He sits in silence as the mist rolls on... Oh, the mist rolls on... A prisoner of the night... Upon MY Throne of Thorns. My Throne of Thorns... [Fade Out]
