Lyrics Erasure – Crown Of Thorns

Fire of the sun
Flowers crumble into dust
The seed shall scatter and die
Light in her eyes

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 burned 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 your wound
Old England wears no crown

Never in a million or so years
Did we suffer so much bloodshed

Never in a million or so years
We didn’t want to hurt you
