Martyr Songtext
von Rusted Root

Hey mister can you help me sir I plead? I plead for your sympathy
Rains came pounding us down again
Your horizons they crawl up to my chin
I started to drown in your vision when I looked through your windows
As they flew through the air all I could find was a river in pieces

How long should we play the martyr?
How long should we play the martyr?

Hey mister come down and see see your misery
Rains came pounding us down well again
Through your weakness I shed my skin open wide to my spirit
I looked through your windows as they flowed through the air
I was left swirling in your pool of aggression

How long should we play the martyr?
How long should we play the martyr?


How long should we play the martyr?
How long should we play the martyr?
Martyr, martyr, martyr

How long should we play the martyr?
How long should we play the martyr?

How long should we play the martyr?
How long should we play the martyr?
Martyr, martyr, martyr

Hey mister can you help me sir I plead? I plead for your sympathy
Rains came pounding us down well again
Your horizons they crawl up to my chin
I started to drown in your vision when I looked through your windows
As they flew through the air all I could find was a river in pieces

How long should we play the martyr?
The martyr oh yeah
How long should we play the martyr?

How long should we play the martyr?
How long should we play the martyr?
Martyr, martyr, martyr
