Sacrificing Liberty Lyrics by Mike Rathke

The Discipline of Dismay

2021

[Verse 1]
When daylight pierced the vessel
When cloud was in the sky
I beheld the star of Remphan
With a million questions why
[Pre-Chorus]
And every hole that tore my soul that day
I still carry them with me
By sheer determination and God's grace
I remain
[Chorus]
But if it helps you sleep
You can picture me
At the bottom
Of the sea
[Verse 2]
When I locked eyes with the pilot
Threw my fist into the air
'Cause I'd rather die in violence
Then cower at your sneer
[Pre-Chorus]
And I've held these wounds for decades in my heart
And while you keep them in the dark
You stored up wrath that you cannot erase
No [?] remains
[Chorus]
But if it helps you sleep
You can picture me
At the bottom
Of the sea
[Outro]
At the bottom
Of the sea
