Saprophytes - The Martyr Lyrics

When you look into my eyes tell me what do you see?
Just a piece of meat or a threat to your pathetic scheme?
Lost within your head for so long, you don't know how to feel
Just shadows and reflections, the only things that's real
The chosen, the cherished, beloved
Abandoned, forsaken, reviled

Narcissus! Narcissus! Gaze into a pool of crimson
Narcissus! Narcissus! You'll surely drown

So go and throw your pity party
Go die a martyr on your hill
Give no regard for anybody
Above the world; their blood is yours to spill

Why stand up and bear the consequences of your failure?
Isn't it so much easier to live inside a lie
Someone else must bear the weight, the burden can't be yours
Enough of this deceit, now it's your turn to die
So blameless, so innocent, totally absolved
You pusillanimous reptilian skulk

The sirens! The sirens! Their wails have pulled you under
The sirens! The sirens! You'll surely drown

So go and throw your pity party
Go die a martyr on your hill
Condemn us all; blame everybody
Yet you suffer only from your will

So go and throw your pity party
Go die a martyr on your hill
Open your eyes; you have nobody
Reframe your mind; you'll be forgotten still
