We're faithful broken promises of the lies
The virtues beaten down into your empty eyes
A saint is not a weapon
It's a message, a message

A sermon of shame
A demon that you want to blame
Sell you, change you
Leave you in a world of flames
Pain is not a blessing
It's a lesson, a lesson

Don't bow down to a world of hate
From your cradle to the grave

'Cause even if you sacrifice beliefs to get through
And even if you take the side of lies over truth
Every day the world will take what you give in to
So hold on to every breath of life in a world of sacrifice

A personal slave
The one you left to die in vain
Sold you, changed you
Taught you all their selfish ways
Faith becomes an addiction
Not ambition, ambition

Don't bow down to a world of hate
From your cradle to the grave

'Cause even if you've sacrifice beliefs to get through
And even if you take the side of lies over truth
Every day the world will take what you give in to
So hold on to every breath of life in a world of sacrifice

Hold on in a world of sacrifice
Hold on until your last breath is gone
Hold on in a world of sacrifice
Hold on until your last breath is gone

'Cause even if you've sacrifice beliefs to get through
And even if you take the side of lies over truth
Every day the world will take what you give in to
So hold on to every breath of life in a world of sacrifice

In a world of sacrifice
In a world of sacrifice
