Lyrics
Son of Cain
I am the afterthought
I am the one who remains
I stand outside the fire
And no one knows my name
I am the invisible
I am my father's shame
I am the oath I keep
The bastard son of Cain
I stand here among you
A stranger wrapped in pain
By bow, by knife I will guard your life
Because I am the son of Cain
Standin' on the fault line
Man on the border again
Keepin' all your fine things fine
Until the bitter end
Shadow in the tall pine Devil's marking time and I can't get weary
Oh yee of little faith, I'm the son of Cain
Stand by the waterline
Drown my stain in the deep
Rise an angry believer
I pray your souls to keep
Standin' on the fault line
Man on the border again
Keepin' all your fine things fine
Until the bitter end
Shadow in the tall pine Devil's marking time and I can't get weary
Oh yee of little faith, I'm the son of Cain
