Another track by Thorny, which was a band comprised of just me and Whitney Wade. This is a short, pretty one I always liked.

Another Bad Suggestion
                                                words and music by Jon Colton


Have I only made it worse
I’ve been blessed with just that curse
If we ever speak again
I may say the same thing then
Oh my angel I’m ashamed
But it wasn’t me who claimed that I could change

And the scar was always thin
Where you end and I begin
So it’s only out of need
You should also have to bleed
Oh my angel please don’t waste
Your life or blood or breath in haste on
Another bad suggestion from me
