Sympathy For The Martyr Lyrics by Straylight Run

Straylight Run

2004

You just can't relax
And you can't rely
On anyone for anything
So you make your complaints
And oh, everyone's let you down
You just can't
Ever win
Convinced there's a war on
It's always everybody versus you
Convinced that your critics are watching
And you've always got something
You've always got something to prove
So tie the noose
And raise the cross
The martyr's arrived
A desperate plea for sympathy
It's all you'll need
A laundry list of problems
Doesn't make you interesting
And never getting help doesn't make you brave
Not listening to reason doesn't mean that you have faith
You're just cutting off your nose to spite your face
So tie the noose
And raise the cross
The martyr's arrived
A desperate plea for sympathy
It's all you'll need
And you want it all
You want it, you want it all
You want it, you want it all
You want it, you want it all
You want it, you want it all
You want it, you want it all
You want it, you want it all
You want it, you want it all
You want it, you want it all
You want it, you want it all
You want it, you want it all
