Martyr

Lyrics

No one here to fear
 Nothing left to feel
 Little echoes in my head that tell me none of them are real
 No more fire in the heat
 No afflictions left to heal
 When all the liars and the thieves are out of fiction left to steal
 So once more into the fray
 Where we brutalize the future while we euthanize the day
 We'll crucify intruders and their euphemizing traits
 I'll bring my anger long as you provide the hate
 And I am not alone
 I can hear the footsteps in the attic
 And the voices in my head are enigmatic apparatus
 I am home
 Scribbling on your illustrated sadness
 With my insulating habits
 While you imitate the madness on your own
 So give me something I can see through
 When you lie between your teeth and wonder why they don't believe you
 They don't need you
 So go ahead and tie the strand that leads you by the neck
 'Cause you were too afraid to bite the hand that feeds you
 And I'm still searching for the careless
 In a mixture of barbiturates and lack of self awareness
 My muses are promiscuously dancing in the bareness
 With the cynics that meticulously asterisk my merits
 So generic
 I wonder if I'll ever be the same
 When I've abandoned who I am but still the memory remains
 The blood is on my hands and I can never clean the stains
 And I've been running out of enemies to blame, blame...
 It's what you wasted on yourself 'til your gone
 You never made it to the end of the night
 And all the times they tried to tell you it's wrong
 You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life
 You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life
 You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life
 It's what you waste on your dreams 'til they're gone
 They never made it to the end of the night
 And all the times they tried to tell you it's wrong
 You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life
 You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life
 You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life
 ♪
 If they took away the shame
 Would you still feel unaccepted?
 When they let you play their game you'll never win
 Would you expect it?
 If they knew you were to blame
 Would you still feel so unaffected
 I neglect to be afraid but your afraid to be neglected
 I don't think you have a soul
 So I guess you're like the rest of us
 Together all alone collecting dust with no one left to trust
 We measure up to nothing
 While we reach for what we'll never clutch
 An exodus and all we left behind us was this exit dust
 And now
 I bet you wish you were there to escape
 The sinister errors in the wake
 Of innocent prayers that you make
 Another promise you can't fix or repair when it breaks
 They salivate your losses while they spit the despair in your face
 How does it taste?
 Is it sweeter than a melody
 Or sour like the power you devour with your jealousy?
 'Cause hour after hour you can cower overzealously
 But nothings gonna stop us when I drag you back to hell with me
 And it's to late to say goodbye
 Because your dreams already found a place to curl up when they die
 And I will let this irony inside of me survive
 As long as violent environments remind me I'm alive
 And I'm alive...
 I'm throwing caution to the wind
 So I can watch it blow away with all my consequencial friends
 They're gone but not forgotten
 While they're rotten from within
 I wanna wash the fucking toxin from my skin, skin...
 It's what you wasted on yourself 'til your gone
 You never made it to the end of the night
 And all the times they tried to tell you it's wrong
 You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life
 You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life
 You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life
 It's what you waste on your dreams 'til they're gone
 They never made it to the end of the night
 And all the times they tried to tell you it's wrong
 You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life
 You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life
 You'll be a martyr for the rest of your life
