The Martyr Lyrics


Keep falling on your sword
Sink down a little more
You said it best
Nobody's worth less than youIt's really only fair
You get the lion's share
You know the score
No one should hurt more than you
These are the words I'm hearing in my head
The ones that I deserve and should be said
So pile it on
My back is strong
Cause I'm the martyrI'm riddled with holes
They never seem to close
The scars I bear, nobody put there but me
These are the words that I will not let heal
The ones that I deserve and seem so realSo bring it on
I'll soldier on
Cause I'm the martyr

The martyrI've honored those who just move on ??
They light it up, years gone ??
Well that ain't me
Well that ain't meCause I'm the martyr
The martyrKeep falling on your sword
Sink down a little more
You said it best
Nobody's worth less than you

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

From deep in inland Alabama comes a talent so effortless and sincere that it is a wonder why the big wigs didn't jump on him sooner. John Paul White, who has recently signed with mega-label Capitol Records, relies mostly on his acoustic guitar to build his songs - but has no problems dressing them up with melodic electric guitar lines. I know I'm always pulling the dramatics out of my hat, but these songs really are achingly beautiful.
