Surrender

Sister Hazel · Lift [2004]

On the plane to Amsterdam

I left the carnage on the ground

In your seat was emptiness

So heavy, we could barely ride it down



And every color since I walked away

Looks to me like every shade of wrong



But now I'm on the way back

Chasing something better

And it's turning me around

Baby if you still care

If there's still a burning ember

I'm ready to surrender now



The illness of my galaxy

Made you revolve around my world

But I cast myself as the brightest star

Falling further from the girl



All the things I thought were made of gold

Turned out to be every shade of wrong



But now I'm on the way back

Chasing something better

And it's turning me around

Baby if you still care

If there's still a burning ember

I'm ready to surrender now



I left the promise bleeding

Cold and barely breathing

Can you still hold on



But now I'm on the way back

Chasing something better

And it's turning me around

Baby if you still care

If there's still a burning ember

I'm ready to surrender now



Ready to surrender

I'm ready to surrender
