Martyrdom

Self-sacrifice, the ultimate price, sublime and never in vain
Never in vain
Example is set, never to forget, defying the norms of Cain
Norms of Cain

Between two fires that won't ever cease
Only fools are dreaming of peace
Now
There's no backing down

You’re at a loss, can hardly see
Deep-psychological policy
Of hate
Until it’s too late

This is for the lost as we count the cost

Abandoned – desperate – discouraged – defenseless
Freezing – starvation – dementia – bleeding to death

Self-sacrifice, the ultimate price, sublime and never in vain
Never in vain
Example is set, never to forget, defying the norms of Cain
Norms of Cain

Hired con artists can't extract catharsis from our tragedy
Unworthy endeavor
Whether they show us scorn or compassion
Glory at the price of moral concessions –
Never!
