Mad House of Cain Lyrics

It's a landscape of terror of evil's dark hue
Beset by the glow of an ominous moon
From the forest of nightmares to the garden of death
The stench of the flesh and the blood takes your breath
Trees stand like towers with corpses adorned
There's scores of black roses with venomous thorns
It's a playground for murder, the damned and insane
And deep in it's heart sets the mad house of Cain

Cain is murder incarnate, he hungers for blood
His hate for the living created a flood
From the wine press that sets on the alter of grim
Come the cats of red liquid all filled to the brim
Where killers among mortals bow down to his feet
To bring him their offerings of fresh butchered meat
It's a haven for murder, the damned and insane
A temple of slaughter, the mad house of Cain

Comprised of members David Taylor (vocals), James Evan (bass), Billy Queen (drums), plus guitar duo John Berry and Derek Eddleblute, power metallists Jacob's Dream hails from Columbus, OH, and is comparable to such '80s prog-metal gods as Dream Theater, Queensryche, and Iron Maiden. Originally formed in 1994 (as Iron Angel), the band issued a self-titled demo two years later, which, after selling over 3000 copies on its own, landed the quintet a recording deal with Metal Blade Records and ultimately resulted in a pair of releases (2000's self-titled full-length and 2001's Theater of War).
