Sacrifice The Prince by The Last Ten Seconds of Life Lyrics
[Intro]
Hollow victories
For a broken man
A shattered purpose
What second chance?
Hollow victories
For a broken man
A shattered purpose
What second chance?
[Verse]
I feel like Judas kissed me
Like nothing's right
Doomed to suffer
For the rest of my life
Rip my eyes out now
Be careful what you wish for
You might just get it
I wanted the worst
And now I got it
I wanted it all
Well now I lost it
I wanted the worst well I've become it
[Chorus]
Funeral home was my throne
Staring contest with death and the grim reaper
Picture of the lord over the door
Remember you can't afford to be a bad boy
Funeral home was my throne
Staring contest with death and the grim reaper
Picture of the lord over the door
Remember you can't afford to be a bad boy
[Post-Chorus]
Well I was and I am
The prince of pain
Sin is my middle name
What's the point?
Who fucking cares
The dirt under your nails
The man you love to hate
Well I was and I am
The prince of pain
Sin is my middle name
What's the point?
Who fucking cares
The dirt under your nails
The man you love to hate
[Bridge]
I am a dead end
Around each corner and within each word
Why were my wings cut?
Bankrupt of all worth
Send me to the heavens
So I can jump headfirst
Into the womb of the earth
Let this unending hurt
Break all binds
Annihilate my mind
There's no light
There's no tunnel
There's nothing at all
From the moment I first opened my eyes
I have been marked for sacrifice
[Outro]
I am the prince of pain
Drowning in darkness
From the moment I first opened my eyes
My body swells as I suffocate and fall back down again
Back down again
Why were my wings cut?
Hollow victories
For a broken man
A shattered purpose
What second chance?
Hollow victories
For a broken man
A shattered purpose
What second chance?
Hollow victories
For a broken man
A shattered purpose
What second chance?
[Verse]
I feel like Judas kissed me
Like nothing's right
Doomed to suffer
For the rest of my life
Rip my eyes out now
Be careful what you wish for
You might just get it
I wanted the worst
And now I got it
I wanted it all
Well now I lost it
I wanted the worst well I've become it
[Chorus]
Funeral home was my throne
Staring contest with death and the grim reaper
Picture of the lord over the door
Remember you can't afford to be a bad boy
Funeral home was my throne
Staring contest with death and the grim reaper
Picture of the lord over the door
Remember you can't afford to be a bad boy
[Post-Chorus]
Well I was and I am
The prince of pain
Sin is my middle name
What's the point?
Who fucking cares
The dirt under your nails
The man you love to hate
Well I was and I am
The prince of pain
Sin is my middle name
What's the point?
Who fucking cares
The dirt under your nails
The man you love to hate
[Bridge]
I am a dead end
Around each corner and within each word
Why were my wings cut?
Bankrupt of all worth

There's no tunnel

Drowning in darkness
From the moment I first opened my eyes
My body swells as I suffocate and fall back down again
Back down again
Why were my wings cut?
Hollow victories
For a broken man
A shattered purpose
What second chance?
