Sympathy for the Ineffable
by
Wall Creatures May Attack As Though They Did Not Have Defender

Please allow me to introduce myself
I’m a Thran with my own race
I’ve been around for a long long year,
Made a study of loss and hate
I was around when Urza’s Guilt caused his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Mishra bent his knee, and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you – hope you guess my name
But what’s puzzling you is the commodity I crave
Stuck around in Benalia when I saw it was a time for a change

I sent Tsabo and my Negators, Gerrard’s kinsfolk died in vain
I opened rifts, forced the planes to shift
When the Invasion came to spread my dark gift
Pleased to meet you – hope you guess my name – oh yeah
Ah, what’s puzzling you is the commodity I crave – oh yeah

I schemed and planned while your Metathran fought so valiantly
In the war they craved
I shouted out “What’s the cost of Phyrexian Tyranny?”

When after all it was (U)(B)
Let me please introduce myself
I’m a Thran with my own race
I saw the end of evincars
Who bore completion scars but could not hold their reign
Pleased to meet you hope you guess my name. Oh yeah
But what’s puzzling you is the commodity I crave. Oh yeah
Pleased to meet you – hope you guess my name
But what’s puzzling you is the commodity I crave

Just as every Plague is Engineered, and all the sleepers wake
As life is death, just call me The Hidden One,
‘Cause I’m the seed of untold taint
So if you meet me, bring back your dead,
Give them fear or give them haste
Give up your love, and then your flesh
Or I’ll duress your hand away
Pleased to meet you – hope you guess my name

But what’s puzzling you is the commodity I crave
