Intruder - The Martyr lyrics
rate meLate one night when I'm lying in my bed, I hear his words, they echo in my head.<br />
Who we are, what we should do, what we'll receive, when the work is through.<br />
I've been touched by the hand of fate.<br />
The winds of change fuel the flames of hate.<br />
Sometimes I wonder why we're the only ones, who see the real solution and know what must be done.<br />
<br />
[Chorus:]<br />
I'm a martyr and I'll die for the cause<br />
I live by our own set of laws<br />
<br />
You say you're blessed, he's smiling down on you. You'll always win, no matter what we do.<br />
You're so naive, you've never seen a war, <br />
Devastate your county, desecrate your shore.<br />
Cities burned down, bodies lying in the street.<br />
Children dying, no food left to eat.<br />
Soon you will know, a little of our pain, we've nothing to lose and everything to gain.<br />
<br />
[Chorus:]<br />
I'm a martyr and I'll die for the cause<br />
I live by our own set of laws<br />
The groundwork has been laid<br />
The final hand is played<br />
<br />
You say that we're not right, you say it's an unholy fight.<br />
Well I say there's no right or wrong.<br />
There's only you the weak - And us the strong<br />
<br />
Somewhere In Middle America:<br />
The mall is crowded, people everywhere.<br />
Tending to their business, of me they're unaware.<br />
Just an old man sitting down for a rest.<br />
With 40 sticks of dynamite strapped to his chest.<br />
I hear his voice again calling out to me <br />
"When it is over is when you'll be free!"<br />
So with a smile and a prayer to my lord, I push this button and go to my reward.
