Cardinal Rule

(album: Unpersons - 2011)

Skittering
You're made of pain
You hide in minds
They writhe, you maim
So charming
Your face a tomb
Hidden horror
You taste so good
Ancient evil

You cheat, you steal, deny that it's real
And re-open wound so they never heal
You hold the cards, I play the fool
When you ignore the cardinal rule, uh huh
Uh huh

You restless ghoul
You're playing games
You set the traps
They take the bait
So polite
Creating hell
A pitfall
You like to sell
Ancient evil

You cheat, you steal, deny that it's real
And re-open wound so they never heal
You hold the cards, I play the fool
When you ignore the cardinal rule, uh huh
Uh huh

Ravenous
You feed on skin
You deal it out
They squirm, you grin
So graceful
You're made of knives
Sweet raptor
They all give in
Ancient evil

You cheat, you steal, deny that it's real
And re-open wound so they never heal
You hold the cards, I play the fool
When you ignore the cardinal rule, uh huh
Uh huh

You cheat, you steal, deny that it's real
And re-open wound so they never heal
You hold the cards, I play the fool
When you ignore the cardinal rule, uh huh
Uh huh
