Shed no tears for the martyr dying Only in pain, suffering and d**h Can the martyr become What he's chosen to be [Chorus] No tears wasted No sorrow, no pity No No crying, no loss Shed no tears for the cop bleeding He once held the gun He once held the keys Now his prisoners will sing and dance and play [Chorus] Shed no tears for the nun beaten By the children she once called her flock
How they hate their teachers Who force the darkness upon us [Chorus] We shed no tears for the suicide He has made his choice The pain of life is great And some will find it sweet To rot beneath the earth As we rot and live and breathe [Chorus] The pain of life is great And some will find it sweet To rot beneath the earth As we rot and live and breathe [Chorus]
