lyrics

Tell me why, you think I, should act like you’d prefer to be,
Tell me how, to break a vow, conditioning or destiny,
Beliefs amount to little: our archetype’s arch answer,
That you’d rather be a monster than a martyr.
(Rather be a monster than a martyr)

Passive aggressive defensive abusive,
I will try to meet with your design, (I will try to meet with your design)
Rejecting the reflection,
The monster in the mirror is not mine.

A serpent in every cell, that rises and advises me,
No more profound than Pavlov’s hound, ring a bell for liberty,
Dress it up in reasoning or lay it on an altar,
You’d rather be a martyr than a monster.
(rather be a monster than a martyr)

Passive aggressive defensive abusive,
I will try to meet with your design, (I will try to meet with your design)
Rejecting the reflection,
The monster in the mirror is not mine.

Can you change, Should I change, Should I care for you or me,
Legitimise the victimised, Bully for the bully,
The dance around the moral stance, begins to slow and falter,
I’d rather be a monster than a martyr.
(rather be a martyr than a monster)

Passive aggressive defensive abusive,
I will try to meet with your design, (I will try to meet with your design)
Rejecting the reflection,
The monster in the mirror is not mine.
