Cardinal SIn - Lisa Dal Bello

We fell into their trap

They stood naked before our eyes

Sacred beads in their hands

Before we knew it we were in their command

All day, all night

They prayed for our souls

And we prayed for our lives

All day, again and again

They never let us forget about Cardinal Sin

Inescapable facts

Tied us up like conditional contracts

All day, all night

We prayed for our souls

And they played with our lives

All day, again and again

We swore that we’d never become one of them

We didn’t know where to begin

With or without Cardinal Sin

We didn’t know where to begin

With or without, with or without

Bridge

Years of bold tradition bound with piety

Slow manipulation cause anxiety

They try to make us guilty with our innocence

So we never know the difference

All day, all night

They danced for our souls

And we prayed for our lives

All day, again and again

We swore that we’d never become one of them

We didn’t know where to begin

With or without Cardinal Sin

We didn’t know where to begin (renounce our vows)

With or without Cardinal Sin

We didn’t know where to begin (or do we confess)

With or without

Cardinal Sin

All day, all night

They never let us forget Cardinal Sin

All day, again and again

We swore that we’d never become one of them

All day, all night

They never let us forget Cardinal Sin
