"Moment Of Surrender" lyrics
"Moment Of Surrender"
I tied myself with wire
To let the horses run free
Playing with the fire
Until the fire played with me, mmm
The stone was semi-precious
We were barely conscious
Two souls too smart to be
In the realm of certainty
Even on our wedding day
We set ourselves on fire
Oh God, do not deny her
It's not if I believe in love
But if love believes in me
Oh, believe in me
At the moment of surrender
I folded to my knees
I did not notice the passers-by
And they did not notice me
I've been in every black hole
At the altar of the dark star
My body's now a begging bowl
That's begging to get back, begging to get back
To my heart
To the rhythm of my soul
To the rhythm of my unconsciousness
To the rhythm that yearns
To be released from control
I was punching in the numbers
At the ATM machine
I could see in the reflection
A face staring back at me
At the moment of surrender
Of vision over visibility
I did not notice the passers-by
And they did not notice me
I was speeding on the subway
Through the stations of the cross
Every eye looking every other way
Counting down 'til the pain will stop
At the moment of surrender
Of vision of over visibility
I did not notice the passers-by
And they did not notice me

Everybody saying everything's alright
Still I can't close my eyes
I'm seeing a tunnel at the end of all these lights
Sunny days
Where have you gone?
I get the strangest feeling...
Dido - "Here With Me" I didn't hear you leave
I wonder how am I still here
And I don't wanna move a thing
It might change my memory
Oh, I am what I am
I'll do what I want
But I can't hide
And I won't go
I won't sleep...

On a pool around the evening
Among the perfumed roses
Wait for her

Loaded for the mountains

All you will see is a girl
You once knew
