Surrender

(album: Renaissance - 2020)

I'm never not broken
And though I stand tall
Against those who seek
To tear down these walls
I'm out in the open
Heart of gold
And though I grow weak
I'm braced for the fall

And I'm running away
From my love for you
Yeah, I'm running away
I'm running away
From my love for you
And you're hunting me down

I want to surrender
My whole not a part
And bathe in the splendor
Of lovers unharmed
I want to surrender
But I am armed
Reluctant defender
I'll give you scars

Yes, I was born
No the world owes me nothing
But my heart seeks that something
Promised every dawn
I work twice as hard
A woman's grace the vanguard
Inching towards victory and turning to the start

And I'm running away
From my love for you
Yeah, I'm running away
I'm running away
From my love for you
But you're hunting me down

I want to surrender
My whole not a part
And bathe in the splendor
Of lovers unharmed
I want to surrender
But I am armed
Reluctant defender
I'll give you scars

I want to
I want to
I want to
I want to surrender
I want to
I want to
I want to
I want to surrender
I want to
I want to
I want to
I want to surrender
Yeah, I want to
I want to
I want to
I want to surrender
