Lyrics The Parlotones

The Parlotones

Martyr

Don't be the martyr, don't be the martyr,

For the martyr will surely die today.

Don't be a liar, don't be a liar,

cause your sins will surely catch you out today.

Matchbox, matchbox,

matchbox, matchbox strike up an idea.

Strained voices distort inside my head,

Listening with headphones.

Strained voices distort and smudge my friends,

listening with headphones.

"Contaminated, contaminated"

are the poisonous words you choose to speak.

Please, think about it, please think about it

are those the final words you'd want to speak?

Are you listening listening with headphones

Don't be the martyr, don't be the martyr,

For the martyr will surely die today.

Don't be a liar, don't be a liar,

cause your sins will surely catch you out today.
