lyrics

T H E S T A I N
~ music and lyrics: Jeff Gallea & James Tabbi 1987

We took the blood, my brothers blood, and cast it ashore
We took the blood, my brothers blood, and drank the wine
We took the blood, my brothers blood, and cast it ashore
We took the blood, my brothers blood, and painted finger paints

And now we suffer, The stain of man
And now we suffer, The stain on my hand
The Stain

We took the hand, the hand of God, and made plaster casts
We took the hand, the hand of God, and painted finder paints
We took the hand, the hand of God, and made plaster casts
We took the hand, the hand of God, and fit him with rings

And now we suffer, The stain of man
And now we suffer, The stain on my hand
The Stain

The sky is falling, the sky will fall, and there's a ring in my ear
The sky is falling, the sky will fall, and there's a thorn in my side
The sky is falling, the sky will fall, and there's a ring in my ear
The sky is falling, the sky will fall, and the sea will not part

And now we suffer, The stain of man
And now we suffer, The stain on my hand
The Stain
