The sound of Sacrifice

[Intro] [Male Vocals] Hello shadow, my old friend, I’ve come to walk with you again, For a vision softly warning, Spoke of death before the morning, And the fate that was planted in my scar, Still burns afar, Within the sound of sacrifice. [Verse 1] Through the forest, dark, I roam, On this path I walk alone, ’Neath the glow of a wand still burning, I prepare for no returning, When my eyes met the faces I must leave behind, Love made me blind, To fear within the sound of sacrifice. [Chorus] In the night, I hear them call, All my friends, I’ll save them all. Take my life, if it must be taken, Let their hope remain unshaken. Every breath, every heartbeat that I gave, Was life I saved, And it lives in the sound of sacrifice. [Verse 2] In the quiet night I see, All my friends who stand by me, Ron and Hermione still holding, Every bond we swore unfolding, But the curse that must be broken rests on me, It has to be, It’s spoken in the sound of sacrifice. [Verse 3] “Fools,” thought I, “you will not know, Love’s the strength that Voldemort won’t know. Hear my words that I might save you, Take my arms that I might raise you.” But my voice, like falling echoes in the air, Vanished there, And lingered in the sound of sacrifice. [Bridge] And the people bowed and prayed, For the price that must be paid. And the scar upon my brow kept glowing, In the dark where death was going. And the words of my parents’ love still carved in flame, Remain the same, And whisper in the sound of sacrifice. [Outro] And whisper in the sound of sacrifice…
