"Sacrifice" lyrics

"Sacrifice"

(Are you willing to sacrifice the thing, to you that is, the absolute most precious in your life?)

I got my contract back from the devil
Now I keep my feet on holy ground
(Are you willing to sacrifice?)

We know who we are, who we are
We know what we want, what we want
I'll say what I'll say, what I'll say
I know what I need, what I need

I put it on the table
And change to make it right
And know that you are able
Yeah, you're gonna sacrifice
And they can tell you nothing
And if you know it's true
And do you wanna do this?
Then you're gonna sacrifice
Sacrifice

I got down on my knees, started praying
Praying to guide me to a better sound
(Are you willing to sacrifice? Sacrifice?)

We know who we are, who we are
We know what we want, what we want
I'll say what I'll say, what I'll say
I know what I need, what I need

I put it on the table
And change to make it right
And know that you are able
Yeah, you're gonna sacrifice
And they can tell you nothing
And if you know it's true
And do you wanna do this?
Then you're gonna sacrifice
Sacrifice

(The thing would've been unrecognizable)
Sacrifice
(He had to completely give up)
Sacrifice
(So there was nothing left but ashes)
Gonna sacrifice
(Nothing material at all, just some stuff on the inside)
Sacrifice

I put it on the table
And change to make it right
And know that you are able
Yeah, you're gonna sacrifice
And they can tell you nothing
And if you know it's true
And do you wanna do this?
Then you're gonna sacrifice
Sacrifice

(Yes, and the answer to that question: what are you willing to sacrifice?)
