Lyrics
Lullaby For Cain
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
From the silence, from the night
Comes a distant lullaby
Cry, remember that first cry
Your brother standing by
And lot of love
Beloved sons of mine
Sing a lullaby
Mother is close by
Innocent days
Such innocent eyes
Envy stole your brother's life
Came home murdered, piece of mine
Left you nightmares on the pillow
Sleep now
Soul, surrendering your soul
The heart of you not whole
For love
But love what toll?
Cast into the dark
Branded with the mark
Of shame, of Cain
From a garden of God’s light
To a wilderness of night
Sleep now
Sleep now
