I felt it under my skin
Watched the walls close in
Your words drawn like a blade
Contaminate my veins

Unforgiven
You bent the truth so you could
Play the victim
Whats real fades

I swear I'm not paranoid
I let it in as if I had a choice
Just bury me in red
I don't want another fight
Push me off the edge
And I can be your sacrifice

Rope severed
This cycle
All consumed by the

Numbered symptoms
That you create
There's no shelter
Beneath the rain

Shut me out
Shut me out
Sick of the misdirection
You cut me down
As what's real fades

I swear I'm not paranoid
I let it in as if I had a choice
Just bury me in red
I don't want another fight
Push me off the edge
And I can be your sacrifice

We let the knot go
We let it unwind
You dug in deeper, with that same knife
Twist the handle, side to side
We let the knot go
You let it die

I swear I'm not paranoid
I let it in as if I had a choice
Just bury me in red
I don't want another fight
Push me off the edge
And I can be your sacrifice
Your sacrifice
Your sacrifice

We let the knot go
We let it unwind
You dug in deeper, with that same knife

You dug in deeper, with that same knife
With that same knife

    Song Meaning

    Sacrifice is a song of defeat: its character is exhausted, relinquishing will in an abusive relationship. There is nothing left to fight for. This is what the band themselves have stated about this songs meaning.
