Surrender

On the day the war began
I promised myself that I’d survive
And I've done everything I could
No matter what the cost, to stay alive

But the fighting’s left me cold, afraid and lonely
And I would give my life to come back home

I need you to show me one more time
I need to remember
Show me one more time
So I can get it clear in my mind
How to leave the past behind
If I can remember, maybe I can surrender

Moving angry through the world
I try hard to believe that nothing’s changed
But that door has closed behind me, the damage has been done
I’m not the same

You’re the only one who understands me
Only you alone can take my hand

I need you to show more one more time
I need to remember
Show me one more time
So I can get it clear in my mind
How to breathe and let it all go
If I can remember, maybe I can surrender

You’re the only one who understands me
You’re the only one who loves me as I am

I am not the man I used to be
And I need your love to set me free

I need you to show me one more time
I need to remember
Show me one more time
So I can get it clear in my mind
How to find my peace again
If I can remember, maybe I can surrender
