Messenger Lyrics by Warrel Dane

Praises to the War Machine

2008

[Verse 1]
I'm the one you called a liar
I'm the lamb who slayed the lion
Crawl up on your cross again
Play the victim until the end
What you've gained is nothingness
What you've learned is useless

[Chorus]
You play the martyr
Crawl up on your cross again
Always the victim
But it's all inside your head

[Verse 2]
Dark are those that lie to lovers
Your father's past the weakest cover
Perched upon your soiled throne
Cast your sticks, I'll throw stones
Envy and lust will drown you
Just look around you

[Chorus]
You play the martyr
Crawl up on your cross again
Always the victim
But it's all inside your head

[Bridge]
Remembering days we felt we were chosen
Those were the days when the hunger was all that we had
Can't take back the past, can't heal our wounds
No one can rescue your faded ideals
All that remains are the scars of our wasted youth

[Chorus]
You play the martyr
Crawl up on your cross again
Always the victim
But it's all inside your head

[Outro]
When will you ever learn to trust another, my friend?
Just play the martyr till the world spins to its end
