The Martyr


Late one night when I'm lying in my bed, I hear his words, they echo in my head
Who we are, what we should do, what we'll receive, when the work is through
I've been touched by the hand of fate
The winds of change fuel the flames of hate
Sometimes I wonder why we're the only ones, who see the real solution and know what must be done

[Chorus:]

I'm a martyr and I'll die for the cause
I live by our own set of laws

You say you're blessed, he's smiling down on you You'll always win, no matter what we do
You're so naive, you've never seen a war,
Devastate your county, desecrate your shore
Cities burned down, bodies lying in the street
Children dying, no food left to eat
Soon you will know, a little of our pain, we've nothing to lose and everything to gain

[Chorus:]

I'm a martyr and I'll die for the cause
I live by our own set of laws
The groundwork has been laid
The final hand is played

You say that we're not right, you say it's an unholy fight
Well I say there's no right or wrong
There's only you the weak - And us the strong

Somewhere In Middle America:
The mall is crowded, people everywhere
Tending to their business, of me they're unaware
Just an old man sitting down for a rest
With 40 sticks of dynamite strapped to his chest
I hear his voice again calling out to me
"When it is over is when you'll be free!"
So with a smile and a prayer to my lord, I push this button and go to my reward
