You’ll Thank Me In The End Todd Rundgren

[Connie]
Sacrifice!
Christ-like sacrifice!
Pass that cup to me
I will bear the price

If the puny and insignificant
Are to have a glimpse of peace
Then someone much like I myself
Almost exactly like I myself
Must rise above the rabble
By helping them to their knees
As this is how I see myself
I might as well anoint myself

For the greater good of us all
You'll thank me in the end
For the loss of the weak and small
You'll thank me in the end
Though it may seem painful at first
You'll thank me in the end
And you'll wonder how things could get worse
You may not reach the end
Speak my name as your last breath is spent

When you were lost in your ignorant haze
And afraid of the dark
I led you out again!
When you dreamed that God was love
And life was a lark
I woke you up again!
For my sacrifice
Who will bear the price?
