Marriage is not a sacrifice at all - we just need to communicate effectively and everything will be fine (at least one hopes so) Marriage is not that difficult - its not a sacrifice, we just need to understand the root cause of the problem which is not communicating ( mutual misunderstanding after the fact - being too sensitive at being 'wronged' by the other person - start looking for all the things wrong with the other person - and start looking for the hope of a 'better' partner. We should learn and understand that the pain or difficulty is a result of not communicating - forming our separate worlds after allowing otherwise fleeting temptations to rest and take root in our minds. It goes on to describe the various steps happening in the our hearts when things are difficult. It is natural to be tempted at this point. I would rather believe that the first verse says one should not be too disappointed when things go wrong - its a human sign. I want to think that the lyrics are saying that a marriage relationship is not a sacrifice ( I need everything to encourage me right now). I tend to think that the repeated "Its no sacrifice" represents the writer trying to convince himself that not that much has been lost, for after all, the two hearts were already living in two separate worlds. "After the fact": "mutual misunderstanding," "sensitivity builds a prison," "we lose direction," "no stone unturned" (with all trust lost, everything is accused and judged). The infidelity rips the relationship apart: "Cold heart, hard done (hardened) by you." The relationship chills, hardens, more distance, and then a fleeting opportunity for a fling looks better than the painful relationship he's committed to ("some things look better just passing through"). " When the relationship is difficult, it is easy for a married man to be tempted- "Its a human sign, when things go wrong- the scent of her lingers,temptation's strong." Each married man may be faced with marriage problems ("negativity lands") leading to the call of "sweet deceit," seeking illicit love outside the marriage. The song "Sacrifice" is about a marriage relationship destroyed through infidelity.
