Sacrifice / Drum Solo Lyrics
Motörhead
Lyrics
Why do they not believe?
I have not lied, even for this
Now no one can conceive
The lie becomes the loving kiss
But I would not
Fall in love like this
I would not
Fall in love like this
The woman stitches the shrouds
The children murder all the world
If only you believe
Then only you will die
How can you not
See the stars in your eyes?
How can you not
See the stars in your eyes?
Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice
Sacrifice, pay the price, blood like ice, sacrifice
(Drum Solo)
The pain is on you now
Do not consider flight for gain
In you the poison breeds
Crawling with the mark of Cain
And no one shall
Set you free again
And no one shall
Set you free again
Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice
Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice
No, no, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
Yeah, yeah
