Martyr's Prayer is a member of the following bands:
i watch the world burn down
and the questions begin
how much longer can i survive?
as the flames rise
smoke fills my eyes
i break the surface for one last time
somehow i see through lifes lies
now i see the sky
and the light floods my vision
now through open eyes
i realize
how i've sank so very far
how we've grown so much apart
the sky meets my eyes
it gently shows me
all i left behind
so many places ive been
yet all to one destination
like everyday in a life
counting down to execution
you knew what i would become
you know what my mistakes have done
and now that i've gained new vision
i cover my eyes
such a failure
such a disfigured life
now in the midst
of a world up in smoke
my deformities revert
and now the fears of failure
completely shatter
bring back what matters
don't i still know you, lord?
cure these phobias forever
i open my eyes
the flames are gone
and i see the sky
it seems empty now that you're here
you knew what i would become
you know what my mistakes have done
yet your love for me
betrays all failures
it is unending
My name's Jason. I work at Papa John's as a delivery driver. I'm a Christian. I play drums, guitar, bass, and I sing. My profile song was tracked by me but I really don't like it, especially the singing. My next song will be better in pretty much every aspect. I like UG because it's a good place to learn about other people's beliefs and views, and to discuss them. Rarely in a constructive manner, but at least it's a way to attenuate my own views with others out there, and learn more in that way. I think that if you feel strongly about something the best thing to do is to explore the opposite argument completely. Whatever the outcome you learn more about the WHOLE situation, which is important. UG is also hilarious.
