Song To A Martyr

There you go again
looking like a traitor
wearing your secrets on your sleeve
it ain't not quite so bad you see
someone has to pay
there's nothing to see here folks
please step away

we only tell ourselves the things we care to pay attention to
just listen to you

you're always high on the inside
dancing like a dreamer
tear stained disguise on the outside
that you still hold onto
sure looks you holdin out for someday

it's best you walk away
but you cannot go
the past is a spectacle of blue
spilling the oil on the canvas of your broken heart
patience, complacence
I'll leave it up to you

you're always high on the inside
dancing like a dreamer
tear stained disguise on the outside
that you still hold on to
don't you now
you're only high on the inside
dancing like a dreamer
sweet dream weaver
nothing comes between her and her fantasy
save, the misery
such a tragedy

You only tell yourself the things you care to pay attention to
here's lookin at you

you're always high on the inside
dancing like a dreamer
tear stained disguise on the outside
that you still hold on to
don't you now
your only high on the inside
dancing like a dreamer
sweet dreamer
tear stained disguise on the outside
that you still hold on to
oh that's just like you still holdin out for someday
holdin out for someday
stick around for someday
why wait around for someday
