I wish it didn't hurt, hurt like this
To say these things to you

I'll sacrifice one moment for one truth

If we get through tomorrow then we'll be fine
We'll wait forever and see how close we get

It's just another day, one more chance
To get this right
I'll sacrifice forever please just for tonight

If we get through tomorrow then we'll be fine
We'll wait forever and see how close we get

The worst is over for now
Take a breath now let it out

    General Comment:2011, and im still rocking hard. Nothing will stop me from the classic's of my generation. This band was a rosetta stone for the style of music that i indulge in 24/7 since 1999 w/ grade.

    General Comment:i love this song and i can relate to SOME lines.

    i wish it didnt hurt so much to tell this guy that i had feelings for him (my best friend), cause when i tell him, he backs away. (i only told him once tho, and i told him i was runk and couldnt remember a thing HAHAHAH)

    ill sacrifice one moment for one truth-i need to know if he has any feelings for me, i need an answer, but ill only sacrifice one moment of our good going friendship for one of my many questions. if i want more answers, i put our relationship at stake.

    after that, the next day we'll be back to normal and we'll be fine. but ill have to wait for eternety to see if we get to the point i want to, or just see how close we get, who knows, still friends or hopefully more. but ill sacrifice a LONG time for it.

    and everyday is just another day to try to make him lov me. a chance to get it right, for me to be what he needs.

    this is my FAV part.

    "i'll sacrifice forever, please just for tonight"

    there was this one night where he slept over my house in my backyard veranda after this party. we didnt plan on falling asleep, jsut rest and stuff. it was a really narrow, long couch, that he was lying on. i could barely fit but he told me to lay next to him cause i was just on a uncomfy chair. we just layed there, his arms around me with my back against him. we spent about 3 hours there. he slept like a baby for a bit, but i stayed there, wide awake in his arms with a smile on my face. i fell asleep at some point and my parents saw me, so when he left at 6 am i slept till lunch then my parents talked to me and grounded me for 3 months. but i didnt regret a thing. i would sacrifice so much of my time, just for a night in his arms. crazy, unhealthy, i know. but thats what makes me happy. its what makes me live.

    as for

    the worst is over for now.

    after he'd tell me about this girl he's starting to like, that would crush my heart. but the day ended and he's safely at home with me (hes my neighbor) and away fromt he girl, the worst would be over...for the time being..until he sees her again, its another breath holder.

    take a breath, now let it out.

    cigarettes. inhale, exhale. SMOKE.

    General Comment:another beautiful song by finch. i think its about having that one perfect moment when you have to risk everything. he's talking about sacrificing everything just so that he can say the truth and to have her for one night. i dedicate this song to someone. id rather have you for one night and lose it all the next day than to never ever get that chance to tell you how i feel.
