Lullaby for Cain Songtext
von Sinéad O’Connor

From the silence, from the night
Comes a distant lullaby
Cry, remember that first cry
Your brother standing by
And lot of loved, beloved sons of mine


Sing a lullaby, mother is close by
Innocent date, such innocent eyes
Envy stole your brother′s life
Came home murdered piece of mind

Left you nightmares on the pillow
Sleep now

Soul, surrendering your soul
The heart of you not whole
For love, but love walked on
Cast into the dark
Branded with the mark of shame, of Cain

From the garden of God's light to a wilderness of night
Sleep now, sleep now
