Martyrs Lyrics

Album: Rise

A useless system without any effect

Created just for show

Appeasing citizens

In danger times, when people cried for help

You disappointed

You came up short

Helpless and forsaken

Victims murdered by neglect

Wide-eyed in their final hour

Betrayed and left on their own

Tragedy means TV time,

shedding crocodile tears

Nothing to offer now,

Nothing to ease the pain

Living off our own expense,

Just like a parasite

Idle to the suffering

Do you think we need them still?

Helpless and forsaken

Victims murdered by neglect

Wide-eyed in their final hour

Betrayed and left on their own

A barren desolate wasteland

Seared bodies lie all around

Petrified in a begging stance

Children forever in their mother’s arms

Helpless and forsaken

Victims murdered by neglect

Wide-eyed in their final hour

Betrayed and left on their own
