Lyrics
The Martyr
Verse 1
Oh my child I’ll never survive
The full moon rises high
I catch a glimpse of their murderous minds
My clean hands they will bind
Like a young lamb to the slaughter I go
Cut down in my prime
Heed not the words of those
Who speak oft of my crimes
Chorus
Because it happened such a long time ago
But I still feel the pain in my bones
Yeah it happened in the days far gone
But soon child I’ll carry you home, carry you home,
carry you home.
Oh darkness falls on mankind’s home
And the heart of heaven mourns
So make your peace and say your prayers
That the dead may be reborn
Oh Amen, Amen
The words on their tongues twist
With Amen they lift up my soul (repeat)
Verse 3
The cold steel exposes my bones
My hands reach towards the sky
Oh dear God where have gone?
I’m left here asking “Why?”
Chorus
Because it happened such a long time ago
But I still feel the pain in my bones
Yeah it happened in the days far gone
But soon child I’ll carry you home,
Yeah soon child I’ll carry you home,
carry you home, carry you home…
Oh darkness falls on mankind’s home
And the heart of heaven mourns
So make your peace and say your prayers
That the dead may be reborn
Oh Amen, Amen
The words on their tongues twist
With Amen they lift up my soul (repeat)
Outro
With their lies, with their lies, Oh with their lies
With their lies they take my soul
No you can’t change the past my son
And revenge won’t ease your mind
No you can’t change what’s done is done
So don’t you even try…don’t you try, don’t you try
No don’t you even try
No you can’t change the past my son
And revenge won’t ease your mind
No you can’t change what’s done is done
So please just let me die…let me die, let me die
And save your precious life
