Sacrifice - Aurelio Voltaire

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

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

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

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

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
