Martyr - Oppenheimer Analysis

You tried my feelings

Showed me a world I left behind

What you believed in

Has died within your troubled mind

The secret meetings

The times we had were all in vain

What we created

Has gone too far against the grain

And now I’m sorry

So sorry

And now I’m sorry

For the martyr that was you

With love and courage

You tried to live inside the world

To tell your story

A tale that ends a life interred

While they betrayed you

When souls were sold you paid the price

To keep the secret

Your life has been the sacrifice

And now I’m sorry

So sorry

And now I’m sorry

For the martyr that is me

And now I’m sorry

So sorry

And now I’m sorry

For the martyr that was you

And now I’m sorry

So sorry

And now I’m sorry

For the martyr that is me
