I followed you in
I was with you there

Twice, I did
You love blood too much
But not like I do
Not like I do

Heard you, saw you, felt you, gave you
Need you, love you, love you, love you

Love you, love you, love you, love you
Love you, love you, love you, love you
Love you, love you, love you, love you

♫ Outro:
C#5C#5
 Blessed be the Daughters of Cain,

Bound to suffering eternal through the sins

Of their fathers committed long before their conception
C#5C#5
Blessed be their whore mothers,

Tired and angry waiting with bated breath

In a ferry that will never move again
C#5C#5
Blessed be the children,

Each and every one come

To know their god through

Some senseless act of violence
C#5C#5
Blessed be you, girl, promised to me by a man

Who can only feel hatred and contempt towards you
C#5C#5
I am no good nor evil, simply I am,

And I have come to take what is mine
C#5C#5
I was there in the dark

When you spilled your first blood
C#5C#5
I am here now as you run from me still
C#5C#5
Run then, child

You can't hide from me forever
