sacrifice - let there be peace
If I ride on the rails I shall ride them alone And if I need all this pain I will find it alone If I'm wanted for leaving I will leave here alone And if I can't resist this Then I am unfit to go on  A simple solution is all I require If fire is the passion I only aspire to be free Let me be free  If the strain on your conscience gets under your skin And leads you to making a sacrifice Sacrifice me Let there be peace  To the grave from the cradle We don't rock anymore Now I stand here with both feet Planted firm on the floor And if you're planning a future Of indefinite grace You'd better start removing The lines of deceit from your face  A simple conclusion is all I require If fire is the passion I only aspire to be free Let me be free  And all of the hypocrites lie through their teeth Talk about making a sacrifice Sacrifice me Let there be peace  How much longer can all this go on? How many more choices can one person have?  And all of the questions with no proper answers Continue continue Have to go on have to go on have to go on Should I bend down and worship the ground Of the beautiful people who live without flaws? Success is a virtue to share with the world But failure's a lesson that's best learned alone Respect is a virtue that strong men command But when words become weapons There'll be peace in the valley of death when I rise Peace in the valley of death when I rise
