Cardinal Song Lyrics

Never look her in the eyes

Never tell the truth

If she knows your paper

You know she'll have to burn you

Never tell the one you want that you do

Save it for the deathbed

When you know you kept her wanting you

And do everything she'd never do

Fall asleep with stranger's wives

The wild wives of unknown men

Good for you, you've just become

Just another one of them

Never say you miss her

Never say a word

And do everything she'd never do

Don't let her see your cardinal eyes

Don't let her see your cardinal eyes

Let her treat you like a criminal

So you can treat her like a priest

Girls forgive my human mind

Girls forgive me one more time

Never tell the one you love that you do

Save it for the deathbed

And do everything she'd never do

Don't let her see your cardinal eyes

Don't let her see your cardinal eyes

Jesus christ you have confused me

Cornered, wasted, blessed and used me

Forgive me girls I am confused

Stiff and pissed and lost and loose

Jesus christ you have confused me

Cornered, wasted, blessed and used me

Forgive me girls I am confused

Stiff and pissed and lost and loose
