Why did it have to be a friend
Who chose to betray the Lord
Why did he use a kiss to show
That's not what a kiss is for
Only a friend can betray a friend
A stranger has nothing to gain
And only a friend comes close enough
To ever cause so much pain
And why did there have to be thorny
Crown pressed upon His head
It should have been the royal one
Made of jewels and gold instead
It had to be a crown of thorns
Because in this life that we live
All who would seek to love
A thorn is all that this world can give
