I still don’t know how this happened
How I turned best friends against each other
After years of hurt my heart’s been blackened
And now I live to see men torn asunder
I used to be a sweet angel
But Adam’s sons played games with my heart
To true love I tried to be faithful
Now I’m lost to a fury in the dark
How do I make these men Cain and Abel
Rumblin’ in the streets over my kiss
Black eyes, cracked heads, dreams like that shattered glass
All because dreams were never meant to last
How do I make these men Cain and Abel
Pride’s wrathful envy, burning all our prayers
So why don’t I care…care…
When the claws come out, they line up for slaughter
Why must men abandon their angels?
Now I’ve proved myself as Eve’s daughter
What is it in our natures?
I used to be a sweet angel
But Adam’s sons played games with my heart
To true love I tried to be faithful
Now I’m lost to a fury in the dark
[Chorus]
Love and betrayal clasp hands over my heart
Poisoned fruit and wicked charms
Are now my coat of arms
After being used and abused
I now have boys under my thumb
Why do I feel so numb?
[Chorus]
