Lyrics Cain's Offering

Cain's Offering

Oceans Of Regret

A twisted sense of irony in the way you´re constant

Lack of sympathy has turned me so hopeless, so heartless

Gethsemane opens for me tonight, I´ll pray for the last time

For you and for me and our ordinary lives, ordinary lies

My pain redefined like an unwelcomed guest arrives just to remind me

I´m here for you if you´d still want me to

For after all I´m yours to keep

Just come to me,

I´m waiting with my wounds wide open

Pour your salt into these wounds

and watch me crawl,

Tell me to take it like a man,

Show me my place,

Hurt me just because you can

Though now it hurts like hell, it is better to feel just something else than live in that uncertainty

So tell me now, how was he and tell me, was he worth it?

An ounce of peace is all I want

A solemn haven for the torn and tired one, downcast wayward son

Can´t crawl out of my hole, so I make it my home while wise enough to dig no more

Trying to wash off the pain stain

Don´t fill my heart with your disdain

Why can´t you see

A leap without fate is what you ask of me

Pour your salt into these wounds

and watch me crawl,

Tell me to take it like a man,

Show me my place,

Hurt me just because you can

Take me in and tell me you hate me

Breathe with me, make love to me until I bleed

How does it feel to know that you can break me?

And I guess I´d forgive if I would not look weak

and I knew that you´d give yourself to me

Though the wound is too deep I would give anything

if I could just be the object of your desire

Silently you stood there before me

Violently unveiling your sin and your deceit

You said to me:

"Love is only beautiful when it bleeds."

Pour your salt into these wounds

and watch me crawl,

Tell me to take it like a man,

Show me my place,

Hurt me just because you can
