  The Story...
This song is the eighth song is a series of nine songs from Soren's debut album, The Dying Man (Death Rattle Records) . In this song, the dying man is full of both selfless compassion and personal sorrow. Soon after, he experiences (symbolic) death. Will he be reborn?
Recorded: This song was recorded in early 2002 in Colorado.
Guests/Players: Soren is a solo artist. All instruments and voices featured on this recording were performed by Soren.
Technical Notes: This song was recorded by Soren with a modest four track recorder and relatively little other equipment.
Artist Profile: Soren is as much a philosopher as he is an artist, and he is in pain. His songs are wet with the evidence of insight and isolation, and so is his personal life. Soren lives and works in a pyramid (that he personally built) hidden deep within the Rocky Mountains (an hour away from the nearest gas station) . In fact, Soren's debut CD, The Dying Man, was entirely written, produced, performed, and recorded inside the pyramid, by Soren himself!

Sacrifice
(words & music by Soren)
Do you hide your wrinkled hands
so I can't see the ropes that keep them bound?
Though you know the ancient handclasp,
the doorway can't be found.
I wish I could, help you find your way.
I wish I could, show you to the door.
You see that I'm falling down
and rush to kick me while I'm down.
And the saddest thing I know
is that you don't even know.
The cruelest words, the cruelest things,
come from innocent souls.
The cruelest words, the cruelest things,
come from innocent souls.
We all have a secret wish.
I wish you all would drop near dead
and resurrect the simple phrase,
there is more to life than living.
Let us all live in love.
I wish we could. I wish we could.
Let us all live in love.
I wish we could. I wish we could.
Now I lay down on the alter,
and cover myself with everything red.
I can not have your attention;
must I light this fire and burn?
I can't give and you can't take
the things I truly have.
I can't give and you can't take
the things I truly have.
never stop, never stop,
trying to find the end.
never stop, never stop,
trying to find the end.
