Martyr Songtext
von Trinity Ace

So tell me then, if I′m your daughter
When they call me your martyr
Why does it feel like a slur?
I went to see the devil to barter
But his bargains got harder
Since he started drivin' the hearse
You′ve seen your fate played out in the proverb
Of your heavenly father
Am I next in line to get cursed?

Well, I understand
Your life's been dealt to you with a heavy hand
But I will command my fortune
Take myself to the promised land

So I shot that crystal ball you gave me
With the pistol in my belt
And now the only cards that can see into my future
Is the royal hand I dealt


So I shot that crystal ball you gave me
With the pistol in my belt
And now the only cards that can see into my future
Is the royal hand I dealt

You wear a target on the back of your armor
Like it's a medal of honor
But acts of valor can′t be rehearsed
And now you′re acting like a lamb to the slaughter
Bathed in holy water
To cleanse yourself of acts impure
You said it's time to meet Davy at his locker
Always hated the doctors
You tried to slip a five to the nurse

Well I won′t be harmed
I've gotta set fire to the barn
To learn to be a cowboy
On the horse that broke my arm

So I shot that crystal ball you gave me
With the pistol in my belt
And now the only cards that can see into my future
Is the royal hand I dealt


So I shot that crystal ball you gave me
With the pistol in my belt
And now the only cards that can see into my future
Is the royal hand I dealt
