Martyrs of the Mind

Your devotion will keep her alive
Though you stand at great risk to die
But that's what a good sister does
Puts her life after the ones she loves

You participation will save her life
You fate is in the hands of the knife
Its not that serious really
They just want your kidney

Its no big deal
You're helping her out
Isn't that enough of an reward
You can't possibly have doubt
Don't you want to see her smile again?
Don't you want her as a friend?
All you have to to is give up
Parts of you

Well for now that's it
But there will be more
Haven't you learned?
There always are complications in store

But in the end you'll feel better
When you've just secured her life
Even if you may be lying in the morge
It was worth the strife

Its no big deal
You're helping her out
Isn't that enough of a reward
You can't possibly have any doubts
Do you want to see her smile again?
Don't you wanna have her as a friend?
All you have to do is give up
Parts of you

Thats what they tell you
Amidst the pain and suspense
It will all add up in the end
No one comes to your defense

Left a martyr
To die so she can live
Your blood, your organs, your life
The greatest gift you can give

Everyone wants her alive
So do you
But have you stopped to realize
Only she wants you?

Needs you in fact
Needs your blood and your parts
Today it is your kidney
Tomorrow it could be your heart

Everyone is smiling
A facade to hide behind
They say they're helping her
But they're only martyrs of the mind
