Lyrics
Mark Of 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.
Cain, firstborn son of Adam
You killed your brother Abel
Now you bear a mark of God in your eyes
Pain is (the) sign of your symbol
And you'll be borne down by (the) load
You will walk forever to live and let die
Life is eternal for Cain
Bright shine the crime from his mark
Some secret's known by his name
He taught man handle Gods spark
(Let the he)
Let the he-goat
Bear all the old crimes
Walk with him, to distant east
Bore from burnt Adam's blossom
To wasteland of Azazel
Ride your horse into the deset of set
And meet him, your master Azazel (4x)
