Sacrifice

I felt it under my skin
Watched the walls close in
Your words drawn like a blade
Contaminate my veins
Unforgiven
You bent the truth so you could
Play the victim
What's real fades

I swear I'm not paranoid
I let it in as if I had a choice
Just bury me in red
I don't want another fight
Push me off the edge
And I can be your sacrifice

Rope severed, this cycle
All consumed by the
Numbered symptoms that you create
There's no shelter beneath the rain
Shut me out, shut me out
Sick of the misdirection
You cut me down
As what's real fades

I swear I'm not paranoid
I let it in as if I had a choice
Just bury me in red
I don't want another fight
Push me off the edge
And I can be your sacrifice

We let the knot go, we let it unwind
You dug in deeper with that same knife
Twist the handle, side to side
We let the knot go, you let it die

I swear I'm not paranoid
I let it in as if I had a choice
Just bury me in red
I don't want another fight
Push me off the edge
And I can be your sacrifice
Your sacrifice
Your sacrifice

We let the knot go, we let it unwind
You dug in deeper with that same knife
You dug in deeper with that same knife

With that same knife
