The Martyr Lyrics - John Paul White

Keep falling on your sword 

Sink down a little more 

You said it best 

Nobody's worth less than you 

It'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 martyr 

I'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 real 

So bring it on 

I'll soldier on 

Cause I'm the martyr 

The martyr 

I've honored those who just move on ?? 

They light it up, years gone ?? 

Well that ain't me 

Well that ain't me 

Cause I'm the martyr 

The martyr 

Keep falling on your sword 

Sink down a little more 

You said it best 

Nobody's worth less than you
