lirik lagu epica – martyr of the free word
speaking interpretation
a conversation can take a sudden turn
and reaching the point of violence
because your silence left you without a hand to hold
your past will lead you on to make…
making a final judgement
based on your bias will never bring you forward
terror should never guide you
for even the fearful can take a beating in the end
suspicion gets you nowhere
those who denounce a way of life
will stand alone
left to atone their social blunders
if you gun down the messenger
you guarantee that he will be made
into a saint
a martyr of the free word
i will say
i will say what i think
i will do
i will do what i say
when liberty seems out of reach
we’ll fight for our freedom of speech
requiem aeternam dona eis,
domine, et lux perpetua luceat eis
missing a simple context
a mental weakness can throw you out of balance
listen, respect each other
then you’ll discover
it wasn’t […]
it’s not too late for mercy
those who denounce a way of life
will stand alone
left to atone their social blunders
if you gun down the messenger
you guarantee that he will be made
into a saint
a martyr of the free word
i will say
i will say what i think
i will do
i will do what i say
when liberty seems out of reach
we’ll fight for our freedom of speech
