Luke Siedle - I Don't Want To Be A Martyr songtekst
Je score:
We were polishing our school shoes And listening to the radio And wondering where time would go And if it would take us along And thinking of assassinating Presidents or movie stars Go high or low, don't go at all They'll make it worth your while to fall But you and I just travelling On some road to down below They tell me that the only way To get to heaven is through hell So why don't we make a stop At the petrol station for some coffee Muse about the time when we were young And when we thought we knew it all I don't want to be a martyr for your cause We were breaking into houses And stealing television sets And lying in hospital beds Regretting all those cigarettes Don't tell me how to live my life You know I'm just gonna wind up dead Look up there at the UFO's They're coming down to save us From the boredom of the planet earth The strip clubs and the Sunday Service Flush it all down the drain It's not worth saving anyway So why don't we go outside The music in here is too loud We'll talk and share a bottle And maybe we'll start falling for... I don't want to be a martyr for your cause Let's just go, to where I don't know There must be a place where we Can laugh and cry and start a fight Come on let's go, let's leave behind that load There must be a place where we can feel Like we're alive We were blowing off our dates To save the world from domination But if we could all be superman Then World War 3 is a competition If only we could outrun All the gunslingers and politicians Rob a bank, and make a break And drive our getaway car Until memories all catch up with us Tie us down, and wait for backup If you could take my handcuffs off Then I would wash away your makeup Why don't we plead guilty to our dreams And our convictions If there's anything worth living for It's not to be a victim anymore I don't want to be a martyr for your cause
