the martyr - mario houle lyrics
[verse 1]
tonight the town unveils the martyr
and i’m white*knuckling the wheel
but not the commemorate the slaughter
i just got scared you’d end up here
i dodge crowds scattered with consumers
i cry your name like you’re a god
wo dodge the truth like they’re just rumors
now someone’s dying for the cause
[chorus]
you know my dad, he really would’ve liked you
never wanted it to be true
but baby, we’ve been through enough
it k!lls me that i’m your perception of love
i know you really wanna hold me
that doesn’t mean it’s working
don’t make this harder
don’t be the martyr
[verse 2]
we drained ourselves of all the magic
kept starting fresh when we were overdue
i never meant to hurt on purpose
so all my fears just punished you
i got quiet instead of just talking
i thought you’d ask me what was wrong
and now i’m supposed to meet your family
with bruised wrists, a black suit, and this song
[chorus]
you know my dad, he really would’ve liked you
never wanted it to be true
but baby, we’ve been through enough
it k!lls me that i’m your perception of love
i know you really wanna hold me
that doesn’t mean it’s working
don’t make this harder
don’t be the martyr
[bridge]
so goodbye
i know that all you did was try
like we were meant to be with time
but i’m no longer what you fought for
i’m the monster that keeps me up at night
and you looked into its eyes
and to think i thought that we would recover
but i know you better
i hope you’re better
i yelled mean words ’cause i felt dirty
i thought your tears could wash it off
i looked around fingers pointing
the martyr had been me all along
’cause now i’m dying for you to respond
[chorus]
in the end it’s nothing but a good show
never wanted it to end, though
i’m sorry i put you through h*ll
then fought for you back when i went there myself
all i want is you to hold me
doesn’t mean i’m worthy
i make it harder
’cause i’m the martyr
don’t even bother
’cause i’m the martyr
