Shed no tears for the martyr dying
|
Only in pain suffering and death
|
Can the martyr become what he's chosen to be
|
|
No tears wasted
|
No sorrow no pity
|
No, no crying, no loss
|
|
Shed no tears for the cop bleeding
|
He once held the gun. He once held the key
|
Now his prisoners will sing and dance and play
|
|
No tears wasted
|
No sorrow no pity
|
No, no crying, no loss
|
|
Shed no tears for the nun beaten
|
By the children she once called her flock
|
How they hate their teachers. Who force darkness upon us
|
|
No tears wasted
|
No sorrow no pity
|
No, no crying, no loss
|
|
Shed no tears for the suicide
|
He has made his choice, the pain of life is great
|
And some will find it sweet to rot beneath the earth
|
As we rot and live and breathe
|
|
No tears wasted
|
No sorrow no pity
|
No, no crying, no loss
|
