"Surrender" lyrics

"Surrender"

When I came back 'round
I was soaked to the bone
Don't need to say it out loud 'cause you already know
I'm in over my head
And the night's getting old
Each word is a wound and excuses are cold

Defeat and surrender always feel the same to me
But what does it matter? They both bring me to my knees

Break me down and put me back together
I surrender, I surrender now
And hold me in the promise of forever
I surrender, I surrender now

I cry havoc
Before you could know
Now I'm ready to pay the debt that I owe
And it's violent work
There's some death on the vine
I know that I'm walking a treacherous line

Defeat and surrender always feel the same to me
But what does it matter? They both bring me to my knees

Break me down and put me back together
I surrender, I surrender now
And hold me in the promise of forever
I surrender, I surrender now

Break me down and put me back together
I surrender, I surrender now
And hold me in the promise of forever
I surrender, I surrender now
