Title: The Martyr
The Martyr puts everyone else's needs before their own
In an attempt to give their life meaning
Then fish for praise for their so called sacrifices
Their eyes crying, but beaming
They'll bemoan how their selflessness goes unnoticed
Looking and acting unhappy to get attention
Offended easily, expecting much in return
It's like they're waiting for some form of ascension
They think highly of themselves
Will moan to anyone who'll listen
Fishing for sympathy all over the shop
Deluded in their own mission
Refusing all help and assistance
"No, no, I'll just do it on my own"
Early to work, staying late as well
No life, nothing going on at home
