Surrender

Waking up startled The truth hit you harder Than when you were sleeping Reality speaking The nightmares of your infancy You're fighting them So desperately What shouldn't be, What can't be true Now it's all coming after You Shaking and you're scared to die See suffering Is in your mind When the man is shot Before your eyes The sweetest dreams and truth Collide But I won't surrender I won't surrender Surrender, Remember Until the crescendo The end is a lesson The end comes with vengeance Sinking deeper I'm Dancing while sleeping I know there's a reason But It's hard to believe it Cynics start to pray When the truth slips away Anything to feel safe Every lie can become an escape But I won't surrender I won't surrender Sat down in the dark I emptied my cup And I bled on the soil Just for a moment I was divine, I was whole Lost the rules, but it's a game The progress Slow to keep you tame To tell what's true, Can tell what's fake Sin is a choice you Make To make a change or stay insane And I know it can stay the same But we Stand still and leave it all For lives to Lose and skies to fall Leave it all, The crying call Death to come for what we Love Sinister, cynical, criminal But I won't Surrender I Won't surrender
