Sacrifice Lyrics by Björk

Biophilia (The Manual Edition)

2011

[Verse 1]
Why can't you give her room?
Respect her spatial needs
I feel you compress her
Into a small space

[Verse 2]
With clairvoyance
She knew what you needed
And she gave it to you
Now her desires are repressed
Arrows in the flesh

[Verse 3]
When she, when she found your love
Her nature bowed her head
She surrendered
She renounced the world for you
Now she's poisoned by demands
You cannot answer

[Verse 4]
Why this sacrifice?
Now she regrets the whole thing
A delayed reaction
When she left her craft voluntarily
For your nest, for your love
Did you understand?
Appreciate

[Verse 5]
Build a bridge to her
Initiate a touch
Before it's too late
Say the words to her
That will make her shine
Tell her that you love her

[Outro]
Your generosity will show
In the volume of her glow
Your generosity will show
In the volume of her glow
Your generosity will show
In the volume of her glow
