Lyrics for Song: Cain
Lyrics for Album: Sometimes/The Lady [2004]
Hello brother, you don't know me anymore
You know my face but you can't recall the name
And I look different than I ever looked before
Would you believe me if I said my name was Cain
Would you believe me if I said my name was Cain
We tried so hard to meet on common ground
And we walked along together for awhile
But then you broke the bond of friendship we had found
And when I shook your hand, you tried to raise a smile
When I shook your hand, you tried to raise a smile
Are you scared of liking what you see
Are you scared of the seed that cast a doubt
You have been hurt, but I've suffered more than thee
I'm left to wander in the wilderness about
I'm left to wander in the wilderness about
I was rejected when you were taken in
I laboured long for my offering of grain
Now you can laugh at the penance of my sin
No it's not easy to bear the name of Cain
It's not easy to bear the name of Cain
