Endless Sacrifice

Lyrics

Cold, lying in my bed
 Staring into darkness
 Lost, I hear footsteps overhead
 And my thoughts return again
 Like a child who's run away
 And won't be coming back
 Time keeps passing by
 As night turns into day
 I'm so far away
 And so alone
 I need to see your face
 To keep me sane, to make me whole
 Try to stay alive
 Until I hear your voice
 I'm gonna lose my mind
 Someone tell me
 Why I chose this life?
 This superficial lie
 Constant compromise
 Endless sacrifice
 ♪
 Pain, it saddens me to know
 The helplessness you feel
 Your light shines on my soul
 While a 1000 candles burn
 Outside this barren room
 The rain is pouring down
 The emptiness inside
 Is growing deeper still
 You're so far away
 And so alone
 You long for love's embrace
 To keep you sane, to make you whole
 Try to stay alive
 Until I hear your voice
 I'm gonna lose my mind
 Someone tell me
 Why I chose this life?
 This superficial lie
 Constant compromise
 Endless sacrifice
 Moments wasted
 Isolated
 Time escaping
 Endless sacrifice
 Moments wasted
 Isolated
 Time escaping
 Endless sacrifice
 ♪
 Over the distance
 We try to make sense of surviving together
 While living apart
 Striving for balance
 We rise to the challenge of staying connected
 In spite of circumstance
 ♪
 All you've forsaken
 And all that you've done
 So that I could live out this undying dream
 Won't be forgotten
 Or taken for granted
 I'll always remember your endless sacrifice
 ♪
 Moments wasted
 Isolated
 Time escaping
 Endless sacrifice
 Moments wasted
 Isolated
 Time escaping
 Endless sacrifice
