Stripped away my pride to build your crown Quietly you let me
sink and drown Left me in the dirt to watch me fade
Living in the hollow world you made And now you shine so
bright
While I am locked in night
You made me ugly
You made yourself beautiful
I am the martyr (Yeah!)
Polished up your lies to look so clean Standing on the stage
of your machine Every scar you gave me turned to gold For
the tragic story that you sold
You made me ugly
You made yourself beautiful
I am the martyr
(No more!)
I am the sacrifice you needed (Needed!) Now your pedestal is completed
I am the martyr (I am!)
