Martyr from Degodify by T H Y M E T H O D
Martyr tells the story of a woman, held captive by a brutal abuser, but most cruel than that, that is martyred by the powerful and overwhelming faith she has in god. Since an earley age, she's been foreseeing scenes of horrible acts, such as wars, killings, natural disasters and other that keeps her held in a constant and deep fear and pain, that also manifiests itself through physical wounds that left profound and painful scars in her body and soul. Martyr talks about how she constantly prays for being released from that suffering.

Lyrics
Distorted sense of truth
Distress comes through
Ghastly unearthly shades
Subdued her fragile faith
A gift from god she held
That lets her see
Everything’s beyond
The fictions she’s been told
No matter what she endures
Her pain subsides
With every single breath
In every single sigh
As visions of uncountable
Prophetic acts
Fills her tired eyes
Will she see the signs?
Are these visions building me a prison?
While this burden rips me deep inside
Prevailing questionings, you call them treason
My redemption leaves me at your desire
Greedily you exploit me
Viciously you engulf me
Cowardly into your
Endless maze of faith
A gift from thee I hold
Your mark that stains my soul
It makes me wish and pray
This curse to break one day
Are these visions building me a prison?
While this burden rips me deep inside
Prevailing questionings, you call them treason
My redemption leaves me at your desire
“My child,
as all of my daughters you have received the mark of the whore,
and with it you’ll have your penance.
You’ll foresee the most horrendous visions of pain and death.
They must be told; you’ll be my messenger on earth, my child.”
“Holy father, my skin burns… it hurts so much.
I want to see no more, my eyes are black filled with death…”
“Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death.”
Oblivious mindlesness
Now besets me
Through wicked vicious means
It forces me to see
Those premonitions
Of uncanny scenes
The angel and the beast
In carnage they both feast
Are these visions building me a prison?
While this burden rips me deep inside
Prevailing questionings, you call them treason
My redemption leaves me at your desire
