Holier than thou
You put your life in someone else's handsHanding over the responsibilityBecause he has greater plans, doesn't he?Now, is that what you call inner strength?Because it seems to meIt's another excuse to make them happySo, don't be, don't be a martyr to yourselfDon't be a martyr to yourselfI saw you staring at the world that wayBut i've got to say, be yourselfAnd you'll be saved.Life lessons in a bookThat you've learnt before you've experienced youthAnd it supports you to your wedding dayOh, veil of ignorance you look so pureBut tell me, really, what's that for?Don't be, don't be a martyr to yourselfDon't be a martyr to yourselfI saw you staring at the world that wayBut i've got to say, be yourselfAnd you'll be saved, you'll be savedBe your own saviour now, Holier than thou.SongtexteAnd I know we're all searching for truth in this worldAnd I know we get so far, but it makes no sense at allBut maybe the meaning is to have no meaningAnd to stop speculatingAnd just... let... goDon't be, don't be a martyr to yourselfDon't be a martyr to yourselfI saw you staring at the world that wayBut i've got to say, be yourselfAnd you'll be saved, you'll be savedBe your own saviour now, Holier than thou.
