Prowl Great Cain

[Verse 1]

Gather jewels from graveyards

When I get home, bury them again

Wonder if you'll ever get the chance

To ask me why I turned you in

[Verse 2]

I saved my own skin but I live to fight

I live to fight another day

Still remember how brave you were

When they came to take you away

[Chorus]

And I feel guilty

But I can't feel ashamed

Prowl through empty fields

Great Cain

[Verse 3]

Thought I'd seen a ghost up on the boulevard

Between the broken bits

It's hard to tell gifts of the spirit

From clever counterfeits

[Verse 4]

Sleepwalk through my days

And mark the hours until these dark times fade

Like a caterpillar crawling out

Along the surface of the blade

[Chorus]

And I feel guilty

But I can't feel ashamed

Prowl through empty fields

Great Cain

[Bridge]

Rummage through the gutted storehouse now

And lick the sweat from my brow

[Verse 5]

Saw the trucks roll out this morning

Not sure when, they're coming back again

Feel the prickings of my conscience in my chest

Every now and then

[Verse 6]

Sometimes a great wave of forgetfulness

Rises up and blesses me

And other times the sickness howls

And I despair of any remedy

[Chorus]

And I feel guilty

But I can't feel ashamed

Prowl through empty fields

Great Cain
