My son, my son, have you heard the stories they tell of me
They've echoed out louder than the father I've tried to be
I hear the blood of my brother crying out from the ground
And I'm afraid that I'm never gonna forget the sound
We build these grand cathedrals and they're standing tall
But there's demons in the doorway and evil in the walls
My scarred hands and reputation, well they're all that last
I settled east of Eden, but you can make it back
My son, my son, I've been wandering for so many years
I ran from hate and from heaven, but I still found them here
My son, be strong, cause you know what's waiting beyond the door
I pray one day God will show you Eden's worth fighting for
We build these grand cathedrals and they've made us proud
But you should have seen my brother's before I tore it down
I worried time would take him, but he's by my side
I hear him when you're laughing and see him in your eyes
So pray down the feet of heaven and outrun the past
I settled east of Eden, but you can make it back
I hear the blood of my brother crying out from the ground
And I'm afraid that someday I'm gonna forget the sound
