Craig's Brother - The Sacrifice

Seemed like an important thing to do
Entertain the audience and everyone I knew
'Til the day I became the one who was consumed
Now that I'm no longer there
You all act as if you care
Now that I've been buried
I'm somehow deified in a song
We all can sing along
And I sacrificed myself for show business
And my recompense for all I gave
Was a place among the famous, hopeless, shameless
Here inside the grave
Greedy eyes glued open in suspense
The lion and the gladiator making his defense
Let the blood flow if it will please the audience
When the hero's dead and gone
Shed a tear and then move on
It's only entertainment
I'm expendable after all, we all can hear the call
And I sacrificed myself for show business
And my recompense for all I gave
Was a place among the famous, hopeless, shameless
Here inside the grave
Now that I've nothing left to prove
Now that I've been stripped of my pride
Nothing left to save
Here inside the grave
Nothing left to hide
And I sacrificed myself for show business
And my recompense for all I gave
Was a place among the famous, hopeless, shameless
Here inside the grave
And I sacrificed myself for show business
And my recompense for all I gave
Was a place among the famous, hopeless, shameless
Here inside the grave
And I sacrificed myself for show business
And my recompense for all I gave
Was a place among the famous, hopeless, shameless
Here inside the grave
