Sacrificial Suicide

Sacrificial Suicide B. Jacobs Verse 1: People float on by in the wind as I wonder why I put my heart on the line No matter what they lie to me and want me to be Whatever I hate about me Hook: And the night closes in around me And the shadows on the wall surround me Chorus: If you're trying to break me, I'm broken If you're trying to sedate me, my eyes will never open If you want to sacrifice me, I'd give up my breath tonight I'd give you my life Verse 2: Forgive me for what I do I don't mean to feel this way, can't help loving you Every morning I wake, you're the first breath I take As my heart breaks ...hook/chorus... Bridge: I haven't been able to tell you the way I feel I'm sorry that I can't be free And let you know that you're all I see You're all I want to believe ...hook/chorus...
