who knows.
i could be misinterpreting what a martyr is, however, to me this sounds like he's taking the fall from His grace, condemning himself to hell and is going to kill the father. freeing himself and others, siblings perhaps, from the fathers abuse?
i'm not sure, this is the best i could come up with, hopefully its a starting point and some others can jump on and throw in their two cents. its a phenomenal song and i believe it has a very deep meaning and im betting im not even close to what it is or maybe just scratching the surface. LOG kicks ass

I dont understand how this song doesnt have more written about it. to me it is a top 5 metal song ever. quick emphasis, i said for me its a top 5.
as far as the meaning, Ive pondered it a while and i was hoping someone would post their interpretation on here so i could compare what I thought to them, but no one has so here goes.
I think its a song about and abusive parent, most likely a father.
Broken, Bones and the will.
Capacity to disappear in misery saves.
~being beaten by the father and hiding within oneself misery to escape from the pain
Soaking, Pain as a thrill, Hate to instill.
Compassion's a cage.
~the father basically gettin his rocks off, inflicting pain is a thrill, he instills the hatred and by showing compassion tot he child he'd be weak
Sunken, sooner or later.
We crawl our way back into our favorite hole
~again, hiding within oneself to escape the torture
Drunken, swallow the savior,
And follow him to hang him from the highest pole.
~i got nothing on this verse, perhaps turning away from faith? sort of a "how does God or a god let this happen to me?
Forgiving the father.
Read the story on my skin,
Tell me more about the man I should have been.
I'll be the martyr.
Falling from his grace again.
~forgiving the Father (God?) for the beatings. the story is the scars from the beatings. The father beats him because the son isnt what the father wanted, gay or something> who knows.
