Sacrifice
[Verse 01]
When I hear your name
I go soaring right back to that place
Red Lips, Basement, Bedroom
Insense, and your perfume
Was the final time i saw your face...
Monday at school
"Oh my God! Did you hear who just died?"
I covered up my ears and I couldn't bare to hear them laugh
About a shot that rang out in the night
[Hook]
There's a place where you and I looked in each other's eyes
And swore that we'd be free someday
So please tell me why you sacrificed all that you would be
We hadn't much to weigh
[Verse 02]
A photograph
Is the only piece of you I have
In that hula skirt you
Smiled yet none of us knew
How much pain there was behind your smile
[Hook]
Hold on, hold on and on and on
There's a place where you and I looked in each other's eyes
And promised we'd be free someday
So please tell me why you sacrificed all that you would be
You threw away your dreams
Only Heaven knows why you sacrificed all that you would be
You threw away our dreams
[Outro]
So much life to live
So much love to give
So much life to live
So much love to give
So much life to live
So much love to give
