The Roar - Skullduggery

They said you're good for nothing
But the corpse you leave behind
And so it was upon my death
They dug my box of pine

They took my ribs
They took my jaw
They took away my spine
Now all this skullduggery
Has made me lose my mind

Skullduggery
Skullduggery
They're taking what they need
Skullduggery
Skullduggery
On every Hallow's Eve

They light their pipes on moonlit nights
And prey upon my grave
For all their skullduggery
Nothing's left for god to save

Web-lanterns burn their gossamer
As shovels turn the earth
They stitch me to the monsters
Who do all their dirty work

My weary bones will find no rest
For though my blood is cold
I shuffle 'round in pieces
Yet another shattered soul

Skullduggery
Skullduggery
They're taking what they need
Skullduggery
Skullduggery
On every Hallow's Eve

I find myself a broken man
And rue my dying day
For all their skullduggery
I'll make those rakehells pay

Skullduggery
Skullduggery
They're taking what they need
Skullduggery
Skullduggery
On every Hallow's Eve

The gallows in the hollow
Will forever creak
For all their skullduggery
Well nobody asked me
