(Flesh And Blood) Sacrifice
Poison · Other Songs - Poison
You give me an inch, I'm gonna take it
I'll steal your love, like a thief
To be as one, is my belief
Like beasts of prey, we must feed on it
I'll be your one, your one and only
To feel me burn, come close and hold me
Chorus:
Flesh and blood, sacrifice
Melts the heart like fire and ice
Flesh and blood like fire to ice
Are you ready to sacrifice?
There's no more time, don't think about it
The flame will die, if you doubt it
It's a game, of love and hate
To lose it all, is a chance we take
Come to me, and take my hand
It's in the fire, that we must stand
I'll take you down, under my gun
Our flesh and blood, will be as one
Chorus:
Flesh and blood, sacrifice
Melts the heart like fire and ice
Flesh and blood like fire to ice
Are you ready to sacrifice?
Our blood runs deeper than a river
The less you need, the more i'm going to give you
And give you, but good
Solo
Chorus:
Flesh and blood, sacrifice
Melts the heart like fire and ice
Flesh and blood like fire to ice
Are you ready to sacrifice?
