Cain & Abel Songtext
von Magdaleine de Lioncourt

He used to drive with one hand on the steering wheel
With his free hand in my lap
He′d caress the softer sides of my inner thigh
Where the sun never hits

Running red and yellow lights
Losing touch with his own soul
Grabbing my ass in parking lots
But goddamn, I can't tell him no, no, no

He tells me i don′t need to worry about that girl he calls a close friend
Says to me, i'm the prettiest thing, I'm the only girl for him
But I saw the lipstick stains left on all of those letters
How could i not be afraid, when she′s so much skinnier


And in all of our wedding pictures
I′m looking over at your brother
Cause he can give me the things that you never could
He fucks me good, he gets me off underneath every daunting moon
You left me to rot and you left me half cocked for you

Now you're painted over, like cracks on the walls of my room
I hate punk rock now because thats all you ever listened to
We were just kids when you told me you′d never do anything to hurt me
But baby, you fucking lied to me, didn't you?

I would run away, I would leave this old life of mine behind
But you couldn′t even leave your wife
I'd sell myself to an early grave and promise that you′d always be mine
But you couldn't even leave your wife, no

And in all of our wedding pictures
I'm looking over at your brother
Cause he can give me the things that you never could...


Abel holds my head in his hands, I tell him that he′s better than any man
But Cain still lingers in my mind
There′ll come a time, he'll pass on to the next stage of life
And as the curtains close on his case
I′ll burn a coffin nail to his wake
And thank God that he was never mine
