Story Behind The Song
Being self consciouse about everything superficial stops you from living your life and that when you look beyond all the judgements of other people you find that beauty exists in everyone even in the people you classify as 'an enemy' or otherwise known as 'the thorn'. The media has created a perception of what is 'beautiful' or 'perfect' when perfection cannot be defined as any one thing or one way, Beauty can be seen in everything if you chose to express that positivity from yourself.
Song Description
A child upholding her mother as a wise and aware soul acknowledging that her self consciousness and her beauty exists in everybody and that is exerted when you find yourself through self development and spirituality.

Lyrics
Walking by myself
I heard a soft spoken cry
so I hailed down a cab, and he said
are you running from your pride
These's a whisper in the trees
on my front lawn
my mother always told me
that beauty exists in the thorn
She's the words of my master
one that holds my hand
she holds me near
like a child blessed in her womb
Ohhhhhhhhhh......
Come be safe my child
walk the barriers and plaines
never pearch yourself on the fence
becuase you take everything in one day
There's a whisper in the trees
on my front lawn
my mother always told me
that beauty exists in the thorn
ohhhhhhhh...
My poor child
My poor child
My poor child
My poor child
Theres a whisper in the trees
on my front lawn
my mother always told me
that beauty exists in the thorn
