Lyrics The Argument - The Mark Of Cain

The Argument

Drama preset on a stage
I thought you knew but what it is I can’t say
Bittersweet is what it is
A homily to a better life
I took the bad news in my stride
Too late to care too proud to cry
I found as good as I can give
Wounded, entrenched, some life I live
It’s what you are
I’ve been here before
So walk on old man
Walk on while you sleep
For mankind’s final fall
And your own eternal sleep
Walk on into the bright light
A new day, another day
Another day for you to try
Remember at the end
You and me, we all die
It’s what we are
I know I’ve been here before
I know I’ve been here before
Drama preset on a stage
I thought you knew but what it is I can’t say
Bitterness is what it is
A homily to a better life
I took the bad news in my stride
Too late to care too proud to cry
I found as good as I can give
Wounded, entrenched, some life I live
Petty jealousy that’s led to betrayal
Enough to drive final nails
So walk on, walk on old man
Walk on while you can
It’s what you were
I know I’ve been here before
I know I’ve been here before
Bitterness is what it is
A homily to a better life
I took the bad news in my stride
Too late to care, too proud to cry
I found as good as I can give
Wounded, entrenched, some life I live
It’s what I am
I know I’ve been here before
I know I’ve been here before
So walk on old man
Walk on while you weep
For mankind’s final fall
And your own eternal sleep
Walk on into the bright light
A new day, another day
Another day for you try
Remember in the end, you and me
We all die
