Sacrifice

Love is nothing but sacrifice...... The things we bear and all that we have to fight for just to be with the one we love

Sacrifice

Sacrifice
Love is nothing but sacrifice
All that I endure to be with you
The fight that I must put up to prove that it's you
They spit on me even as they curse me
Their assault and battery all over me
And still to them, I profess my love for you
And no matter what, it's only you
For like Romeo and Juliet
Till death us do part

Sacrifice
Their stone cold hearts of ice
To cut off all links that could tie me to you
To break down all communication that leads to you
But I stand firm as I take my stand
For like the wedded ring that gleams on my hand
That which was joined by The Lord
Could never be shattered by their sword

Sacrifice
They are unto me all but nice
Pumping my head with tales of pessimism
In effort to stagger my walk of optimism
But they know not the depths of my dare
I quiver not by their scare
I have opted for it, my sacrifice
For love is not but sacrifice
