Sacrifice Lyrics by Finger Eleven

Sacrifice

These things are eventual,
And I can't be too careful.
There's nothing more gradual
Than what I choose to show
And you've been patient with me, alright.
But does that end tonight?

I will brave any trial by fire,
But I'm just not ready
To fall through your thin ice.
I'll explain myself in time,
But I'm just not ready
To make that sacrifice

But I'm tryin like I said I might

These things are unusual for me,
I should explain
No mind should have ever dreamt
Of such fictitious pain.
There's a story in there somewhere,
But I'm not sure you care

I will brave any trial by fire,
But I'm just not ready
To fall through your thin ice.
I'll explain myself in time,
But I'm just not ready
To make that sacrifice.

But I'm tryin like I said I might

But I don't trust this exercise,
But I'm trying like I said I might,

I might,
I might trust it this one time,
[x4]
But I don't trust this exercise.

There's a story in there somewhere,
But I'm not sure you care

I will brave any trial by fire,
But I'm just not ready
To fall through your thin ice.
I'll explain myself in time,
But I'm just not ready
To make that sacrifice

But I'm trying,
[Trying like I said I might]
Just like I said I might,
[Trying like I said I might]
Yeah I'm trying,
[But I don't trust this exercise]
Just like I said I might.
[Just like I said I might...]
