lyrics

my child why have you been hiding?
i could see you all along
who told you that you were naked?
you felt no shame at all

you were set apart
now you're separate from me
you have sought the world
and you've seen all you could see
temptation you could not bear
but i had made a way
now make your way from here

pass blame as long as you would like to
but i am not a fool
you have directly disobeyed me
to curse your selfish rule

you were set apart
now you're separate from me
you have sought the world
and you've seen all it could bring
temptation you could not bear
but i had made a way
now make your way from here

the ground's cursed because of you
pain comes in all you do
all of your days
the ground's cursed because of us
dust will return to dust
all of our days
the ground's cursed because of me
struggle for everything
all of my days
the ground's cursed because of me
pain comes in everything
all of my days
