Martyr Video (MV)

I'm sitting silent on the losing side
Watching everybody pass me by
I wouldn't mind it if it wasn't for pride
Wishing that they'd just give me a try
Well Momma said I wouldn't make it that far
But Momma don't always know best
I wouldn't mind it if words didn't leave scars
That are written all over my chest

And I didn't ask to be your daughter
But I'll gladly be a martyr

Hopes weren't high
In that ole house of mine
But I don't hate that they didn't believe
They had a hard time putting dreams aside
So they expect the same out of me
Daddy said I couldn't please them all
Someday that I'll make them see
It's such a shame I, Oh I always fall
But the decent never bothered me

And I
I will proudly be a martyr

You throw your sticks and you cast your stones
And you build your walls with broken bones
And maybe that's the way it goes
But I am tired of the round and round
I'm tired of the ups and the downs

Instrumental

And I
I will proudly be a martyr
