Brielle Jacobs Poet Lyric

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...
