Sacrifice


Sacrifice.

Darling can't you hear me
Calling out your name
You can't see
Why I took the blame

You cannot heal me
But try as you please
Darling can't you see
We were never meant to be

Your eyes
They will lead to my demise
Cause I just can't look away
It's time to hear the sentence and the plea

Darling you can't heal me
But try as you please
Oh you just can't see
We were never meant to be
