Surprise Extra Thing: How Many Martyrs (it's a song) (Patreon)

I came across this video on YouTube and thought it might be fun to see if I could write something for it. I actually wrote these lyrics ages ago but couldn't figure out a melody. I think they fit pretty well. Please bear in mind I haven't recorded music in a long time and I didn't do much with my vocals except a bit of EQ tweaking.
Full credit for the guitar goes to unfinishedsongs
Only the melody and words are mine!
LYRICS:
he was the first step in a million new directions
he was the first glimpse of a different reflection
she lost herself in lying eyes looking within
she lost the pieces of herself by saving him
how many martyrs has he made
potential buried in a shallow grave
how many martyrs has he made
out of the ones we couldn't save
he was the first breath to be stolen from her lungs
he was the first foot to tap dance on her rungs
she held him up until she lost all of her strength
even on bleeding knees she never lost her faith
how many martyrs has he made
potential buried in a shallow grave
how many martyrs has he made
out of the ones we couldn't save
don't stop running
he's so close
don't stop running
he's not your home
