I've been a martyr for love
|
And I will die in the flames
|
As I draw my last breath
|
As I close in on death
|
I will call out your name
|
|
I've been a martyr for love
|
Nailed up on the cross
|
While you're having your fun
|
As the damage is done
|
I'm assessing the cost
|
|
I knew what I was letting myself in for
|
I knew that I could never even the score
|
|
I've been a martyr for love
|
I need to be by your side
|
I have knelt at your feet
|
I have felt you deceit
|
Couldn't leave if I tried
|
|
I've been a martyr for love
|
Tortured every hour
|
From the day I was born
|
I've been moved like a pawn
|
By the greatest of powers
|
|
I knew that I would have to suffer in vain
|
Aware that I would never outgrow the pain
|
|
I've been a martyr for love
|
I've been a martyr for love
|
I've been a martyr for love
|
