Sacrifice
(music & lyrics: Tobias Sammet)
Too much time to get lost in the maze
Tell me isn't that strange
You bleed to get there - you are ready
To be a bird in a golden cage
Sweat is breaking on my brown
Where's the freak to ease my pain
Room is dark and big and empty
Silence driving me insane
Night has fallen - Demons laughing
I'm waiting for the light of day
Here's the land of milk and honey
There you got the price to pay
Searching for shelter
Riding the pendulum to paradise
As I'm reaching higher - What a pure desire
I'm swinging back towards the edge
And I drift away - killing sacrifice
Here I go insane
What a price to pay - Little sacrifice
I set off to heaven and found bedlam
There's a part of me that's not been sold
Save me please embrace me hold me
Kiss my bleeding soul
You can't see below the creature
That's pounding sitting in my neck
If you'd see inside my head
You surely wouldn't turn your back on me
I'm looking for shelter
Riding the pendulum to paradise
As I'm reaching higher - What a pure desire
I'm swinging back towards the abyss
And I drift away ...
Nothing remains the same
But still I here those voices
Nothing remains the same
Where am I gonna go is it my destination
Or just a sick temptation
And I remember home when demons came
And I got swept away from me
