Bob Mould - Sacrifice/Let There Be Peace lyrics
[Bob Mould - Sacrifice/Let There Be Peace lyrics]
If I ride on the rails
I shall ride them alone
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
Oh, if the strain on your
Conscience gets under your skin
And leads you to making
A sacrifice, sacrifice me, oh
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 oh, let me be free
And all of the hypocrites
Lie through their teeth
Talk about making a sacrifice, sacrifice me
Oh, let there be peace, yeah
How much longer can all this go on?
How many more chances can one person have?
And all of the questions
With no proper answers
Continue, continue, have to go on
Have to go on
Should I bend down and worship the ground
(Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice me)
Of the beautiful people who
Live without flaws?
(Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice me)
Success is a virtue to share with the world
(Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice me)
But failure's a lesson that's
Best learned alone
(Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice me)
Respect is a virtue that strong men command
(Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice me)
But when words become weapons
(Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice me)
There'll be peace in the valley
Of death when I rise
(Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice me)
There'll be peace in the valley
Of death when I rise, yeah
(Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice me)
There'll be peace in the valley
Of death when I rise, oh yeah
(Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice me)
There'll be peace
(Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice me)
There'll be peace in the valley
Of death when I rise
(Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice me)
Peace in the valley of death when I rise
(Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice me)
I shall ride them alone
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
Oh, if the strain on your
Conscience gets under your skin
And leads you to making
A sacrifice, sacrifice me, oh
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 oh, let me be free
And all of the hypocrites
Lie through their teeth
Talk about making a sacrifice, sacrifice me
Oh, let there be peace, yeah
How much longer can all this go on?
How many more chances can one person have?

There'll be peace in the valley
Of death when I rise, oh yeah
(Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice me)
There'll be peace
(Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice me)
There'll be peace in the valley
Of death when I rise
(Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice me)
Peace in the valley of death when I rise
(Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice me)
