Liner Notes:

Sacrificial Glam’s Notes: Eric Distad was kind enough to lend some lyrics to me. He thought they were a bit rough. I thought they were hella fun. Think of an intense movie of king Arthur. It is the psychological moment before he grabs the sword..Thanks Eric for all the fun.

Eric’s Notes: I’ve always been impressed with Sacrificialglams approach to progression and melody. When these lines came up, I thought it might be a perfect fit… and I think I was right. This is awesome SG! Thanks for doing this!

Lyrics:

Camera lights flare
glance from the hilt
great stone looms
world starts to tilt

chosen stand close
naked lust in their eyes
arms start to twitch
so close to the prize

(chorus)
The secret is not to want it
To know the hell awaiting you
If you’re smart enough to do it
then You know you don’t want to

Once you have got it
You can’t put it down
That is the burden
the price of the crown

They tell you your right
the world says your wrong
swear oath to your life
sell out for a song

inscribed Take me up
and cast me aside
This prize is not won
through matters of pride

The sword cuts two ways
swings back just as quick
leave it unused
the key to the trick
