Shed No Tears

Lyrics for Shed No Tears

Shed no tears for the martyr dying Only in pain suffering and death Can the martyr become what he's chosen to be No tears wasted No sorrow no pity No, no crying, no loss Shed no tears for the cop bleeding He once held the gun. He once held the key Now his prisoners will sing and dance and play No tears wasted No sorrow no pity No, no crying, no loss Shed no tears for the nun beaten By the children she once called her flock How they hate their teachers. Who force darkness upon us No tears wasted No sorrow no pity No, no crying, no loss Shed no tears for the suicide He has made his choice, the pain of life is great And some will find it sweet to rot beneath the earth As we rot and live and breathe No tears wasted No sorrow no pity No, no crying, no loss
