Song of the Martyr

It's time now
Time for the show to begin
And we can watch it all again
Though we've seen it before
We pretend to be entertained
To be surprised
When the mask falls to the floor
And the lights go down
As the music starts

Then you sing the song of the martyr
Your lips move, but it's not your voice
And you act out the role of the victim
As if you never had a choice
Bleed on command
It's so much more believable when you
Hold out your hands
And show us all where you hammered the nails through

It's time now
Time for the show to begin
But there's no one left to watch
That haven't seen it before
And they tried to be entertained
Believe the lie
When the mask fell to the floor
And the lights go down
As the music starts

Then you sing the song of the martyr
Your lips move, but it's not your voice
And you act out the role of the victim
As if you never had a choice
Bleed on command
It's so much more believable when you
Hold out your hands
And show us all where you hammered the nails through

Then you sing the song of the martyr
Your lips move, but it's not your voice
And you act out the role of the victim
As if you never had a choice
Bleed on command
It's so much more believable when you
Hold out your hands
And show us all where you hammered the nails through

Then you sing the song of the martyr
Your lips move, but it's not your voice
And you act out the role of the victim
As if you never had a choice
Bleed on command
It's so much more believable when you
Hold out your hands
And show us all where you hammered the nails through
