2:08He had a lot to say
2:11He had a lot of nothing to say
2:13We'll miss him
2:16We'll miss him
2:19He had a lot to say
2:22He had a lot of nothing to say
2:24We'll miss him
2:27We'll miss him
2:29We're gonna miss him
2:32We're gonna miss him
2:35♪
2:38So long
2:42We wish you well
2:47You told us how you weren't afraid to die
2:50Well, so long
2:55Don't cry
3:00Or feel too down
3:04Not all martyrs see divinity
3:08But at least you tried
3:13♪
3:29Standing above the crowd
3:32He had a voice that was strong and loud
3:34We'll miss him
3:37We'll miss him
3:39Ranting and pointing his finger
3:42At everything but his heart
3:45We'll miss him
3:48We'll miss him
3:50We're gonna miss him
3:53We're gonna miss him
3:56♪
3:59No way to recall
4:07What it was that you had said to me?
4:11Like I care at all
4:16But it was so loud
4:20You sure could yell
4:24You took a stand on every little thing
4:28And so loud
4:34You could be the one who saves me from my own existence
4:43♪
4:55Warn while some child might chill, nine-one-two
5:08♪
5:19I'm too smart when you're invisible by the bone symbol on you
5:26So he bashes his skull through the window while looking out to the sea
5:31Like torment of my ego
5:35And we're amused by this
5:39Yeah, standing above the crowd
5:43He had a voice that was strong and loud and I
5:45Swallowed his facade 'cause I'm so
5:48Eager to identify with
5:50Someone above the ground
5:52Someone who seemed to feel the same
5:55Someone prepared to lead the way
5:58And someone who would die for me
6:03Will you?
6:06Will you now?
6:08Would you die for me?
6:10Don't you fuckin' lie
6:13Don't you step out of line
6:16Don't you step out of line
6:18Don't you step out of line
6:20Don't you fuckin' lie
6:23♪
6:35You've claimed all this time that you would die for me
6:46Why then are you so surprised when you hear your own eulogy?
6:56He had a lot to say
6:58He had a lot of nothing to say
7:01He had a lot to say
7:04He had a lot of nothing to say
7:08♪
7:15Come down
7:18Get off your fucking cross
7:21We need the fucking space to nail the next fool martyr
7:28♪
7:48To ascend you must die
7:51You must be crucified
7:53For our sins and our lies
7:56Goodbye
7:59♪
