Endless Sacrifice

[Verse 1] 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 [Refrain] I'm so far away And so alone I need to see your face To keep me sane, to make me whole [Pre-Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] Pain, it saddens me to know The helplessness you feel Your light shines on my soul While a thousand candles burn Outside this barren room The rain is pouring down The emptiness inside Is growing deeper still [Refrain] You're so far away And so alone You long for love's embrace To keep you sane, to make you whole [Pre-Chorus] 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 [Chorus] Moments wasted, isolated Time escaping, endless sacrifice Moments wasted, isolated Time escaping, endless sacrifice [Instrumental Break] [Keyboard Solo] [Guitar Solo] [Guitar & Keyboard Solo] [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] 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 [Chorus] Moments wasted, isolated Time escaping, endless sacrifice Moments wasted, isolated Time escaping, endless sacrifice
