Lyrics

You call the darkness back to you
I am ready to feed you to the night
I don't have time to coddle you
While you're repeating the cycle
You just need a fixation to pass the time
Can you just for once
Take care of yourself?
Can you try to handle this?
I am far too tired to hear it one more time
You are your own sacrifice
Why must you wallow in all your delusions?
Nail yourself to the cross at least once a week
Well you've got some nerve to lay all your demons at my feet
Far too used to expecting so much from me
I will not supply
What you need this time
I don't have any strength left
But you never see what is troubling me
You just turn the other cheek
You are your own sacrifice
(You are the sacrifice
In your own minds eye
Ritual brings fuel
So cruel is your life)
Let go of me
I cannot remember anything
So low and too far gone
To carry the weight
And I know that you say so
But I'm depleted of my energy
I can't bear your cold stare
Toward the sky
