A Clown Of Thorns Lyrics
Walking my personal Calvary mile to a do-it-yourself crucifixion,
It's a kingdom of clowns wearing martyrdom's frown -
I must fight for my hammer and nails,
We're an endless procession of lost, dispossessed unbelievers -
Whose prayers go unheard and unanswered,
(unheard and unanswered like junk mail for Jesus).
It's a kingdom of clowns wearing martyrdom's frown -
I must fight for my hammer and nails,
We're an endless procession of lost, dispossessed unbelievers -
Whose prayers go unheard and unanswered,
(unheard and unanswered like junk mail for Jesus).

Martin (singer/writer) pictures himself as going to be crucified and as a clown for he is going so much against the flow (normality) that he seems to be fighting for his hammer and nails.
He is also such an atheist that he includes a § that says prayers remain unheard for they are unworthy of God.
Martin Walkyiers a pagan, not an atheist.
