Thornside Songtext
von Matt Brouwer

Well, it′s hard to keep a secret in a one-horse town
You can build your house of cards, but they'll burn it to the ground
Oh, I′ve been stuck in Thornside all my life
I was making my escape when a standoff at sundown
And an itchy trigger finger left me haunted by the sound
I got it from a boy, but I wear it like a badge

I've been waiting for a break in the clouds
I've been searching for a face in the crowd
I′ve been waiting for this thorn in my side to set me free

Preacher said, "Now son, it′s time you've got to lay that burden down
′Cause a well without the water's just a hole in the ground
The ghosts you feared your whole life are gone without a trace
What you′re running from in Thornside might be your saving grace"


I've been waiting for a break in the clouds
I′ve been searching for a face in the crowd
I've been waiting for this thorn in my side to set me free, yeah

Set me free, come on, rescue me (Rescue me)
Set me free when the water's rising
Set me free, come on, rescue me (Rescue me)
Set me free ′cause the water′s rising
(Free, free, set me free)
Ooh-ooh
(Free, free, set me free)

I've been waiting for a break in the clouds
I′ve been searching for a face in the crowd
I've been waiting for this thorn in my side to set me free, yeah


Set me free, come on, rescue me (Rescue me)
Set me free when the water′s rising
Set me free, come on, rescue me (Rescue me)
Set me free 'cause the water′s rising
(Free, free, set me free)
Ooh-ooh
