Sacrificial Love Lyrics

Some times i feel like I'm chasing the shadows in your eyes
Losing my footing and looking for something i recognize
You tell me your here for forever
But act like your passing through
Which one's the real you
Which one's the real you

Are you only practicing until you find the real thing
Taking up space until you find yourself that perfect face
Are you looking over my shoulder
Am I enough or just your sacrificial love

I know when we started i kind of talk you into this
I was good for the moment but now something is missing from your kiss
I see you laying beside me
But I feel you moving on
Which one's the real you
Which one's the real you

Are you only practicing until you find the real thing
Taking up space until you find yourself that perfect face
Are you looking over my shoulder
Am I enough or just your sacrificial love

Do I have to spill my tears
Teach you how to say good-bye
If that's not what I am to you
Then what am I, what am I

Are you only practicing until you find the real thing
Taking up space until you find yourself that perfect face
Are you looking over my shoulder
Am I enough or just your sacrificial love
Or just your sacrificial love

I Survived You

Measure of a Man

Are you only practicing until you find the real thing
Taking up space until you find yourself that perfect face
Are you looking over my shoulder
Am I enough or just your sacrificial love

Do I have to spill my tears
Teach you how to say good-bye
If that's not what I am to you
Then what am I, what am I

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Just love his new cd. And this song in particular! Can't believe no one have commented this! I think this song is about a person who's in a relationship. He loves her more than anything else, but he doubt she feels the same way. He don't know if she's into him at all. He starts to think if she's just with him, to be with someone until she finds something better. I'm not sure, and I'm not that good at interpreting lyrics, but that's just what I think.
