In the silence of your mind
You should ask yourself
What it is that makes you who you are
In the valley of your soul
You should take a walk
But you never go that far
It's strange
That I should know you better than you do
You love me for who I am
So strange
Everybody
Everybody sees your light shine through
Except for you
In the window of your past
There's a broken pain
Reflecting all the things that make you sad
In the shadow of your fear
There's no hiding place
So why do you run there
It's strange
That I should know you better than you do
You love me for who I am
So strange
That you should want to live your whole life through
Broken and blue
You're a martyr for the cause
But what the cause is I'm not sure
I'm sure that ends with no applause
Except for yours
In the church of all my dreams
You're a martyr for the cause
I will say a prayer
That one day you'll believe
It's strange
That I should know you better than you do
You love me for who I am
So strange
That everybody sees your light shine through
You love me for who I am
Except for you
You're a martyr for who I am
Oh
