"SACRIFICE" lyrics

"SACRIFICE"

They give you a throne, they give ya a town
They build you an army to fight for the crown
I know that you think this is what you want
But a part of you rots, and a part of you's gone

So go on, darlin', save yourself
'Cause I'm scared I'm going to hell

I let my fire feed the beast of desire
It burns me up and that's a pain I will remember
For the rest of my days
Control takes a piece of my soul
It holds me under till I go insane
But that's the sacrifice I've made

So give me a ledge, give me a grave
I'd rather be dead than to give up this name
I've seen the monsters, I carry the weight
And you couldn't handle the price that I paid

So, go on, keep your sanity
Lord knows there's no saving me

I let my fire feed the beast of desire
It burns me up and that's a pain I will remember
For the rest of my days
Control takes a piece of my soul
It holds me under till I go insane
But that's the sacrifice I've made

All the chemicals, and the fucking trolls
Think there's something twisted up the blood, something medical
Another pretty face, kiss, kiss, just a centerfold
Looking like a god when you put me on a pedestal

I let my fire feed the beast of desire
It burns me up and that's a pain I will remember
Control takes a piece of my soul
It holds me under till I go insane
But that's the sacrifice I've made
