Sacrificelet There Be Peace Lyrics

If I ride on the rails



I shall ride them alone



And 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







If the strain on your conscience gets under your skin



And leads you to making a sacrifice



Sacrifice me



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



Let me be free







And all of the hypocrites lie through their teeth



Talk about making a sacrifice



Sacrifice me



Let there be peace







How much longer can all this go on?



How many more choices can one person have?







And all of the questions with no proper answers



Continue continue



Have to go on have to go on have to go on



Should I bend down and worship the ground



Of the beautiful people who live without flaws?



Success is a virtue to share with the world



But failure's a lesson that's best learned alone



Respect is a virtue that strong men command



But when words become weapons



There'll be peace in the valley of death when I rise



Peace in the valley of death when I rise
