Martyrs

[Verse 1]
Don't act like you're better than me.
Martyr as I am, not listening.
I'm not listening.
Equality is a lie, and you know that I'm numb to it all, willing to fall.
But don't get off your knees yet,
Because you're dying inside,
I wanna strip you of your pride.
You can strip me of my pride.
We're not so different.
You. And. I.

[Verse 2]
If you act like you're above me, you're probably not.
If I gave a single fuck, I'd probably be shot- but I don't.  So I won't. 
We're both playing with fire,
we cut each other down like barbedwire

[Chorus]
Martyr as I am, 
You're not different from me
You'd die on your hill for what you believe 
So how am I the only dying lamb
When we're both sheep?
You can cry yourself to sleep,
Go cry yourself to sleep.
But know this one thing...

We're not so different, no matter what you think.

[Musical Interlude]

[Chorus]
Martyr as I am, 
You're not different from me
You'd die on your hill for what you believe 
So how am I the only sacrificial lamb 
When we're both fucking bleeding?
You can cry yourself to sleep,
Go cry yourself to sleep.

[Final Chorus- One intense voice]
We're not so different. 
You. And. I.
You. And. I.
You. And. I.
We'd both rather die.
Don't pretend to deny it.
You cannot hide it. 
Stop fucking lyin'!
Martyr as I am.
Martyr as you are.
Don't deny what's within.
You. And. I.
You. And. I.
What a fucking shame.
Moths to a flame.
We're both to blame.
You. And. I.
(You. And. I.)
