[00:49.09]Well I'm trying to tell you about a thing I thought I saw
[00:55.27]It came to me in a dream one night
[00:58.33]When a voice began to call
[01:01.45]I heard my name being summoned as I looked around to see
[01:07.43]A hooded judge and jury
[01:10.54]There was no mercy there for me
[01:14.85]Well I can't make it I just can't figure it out
[01:18.84]This dream is drivin' me crazy
[01:21.59]I gotta know what it's all about
[01:26.52]The mark is upon me and the mark of Cain brings fear
[01:31.57]A cold wind's blowin' right down my back
[01:37.29]I'm runnin I'm runnin' from a figure that's dressed in black
[01:44.10]I think my legs are made out of lead
[01:47.63]Cause I'm runnin' but I'm going nowhere
[01:49.63]The bad dream is coming closer and closer
[01:52.69]I got a feelin' he'll always be there
[01:56.87]Forever is a long time to spend in agony
[02:01.55]And the demons of confusion have got a place for me
[02:07.79]The mark is upon me and the mark of Cain brings fear
[03:09.28]I was tired so tired of runnin'
[03:12.08]I had to turn and look around
[03:15.20]I saw eyes that looked right through me
[03:17.94]And a voice that made no sound
[03:21.44]My body froze and I stood and stared unearthly face before me
[03:27.69]From the depths of a hooded nightmare I saw what could not be
[03:34.92]Mysteries and mayhem from the pinnacle I see
[03:39.04]There's no answer when there's no question
[03:41.53]The mark of Cain bears hard on me
