My Only Surrender Lyrics

This is my only surrender
I felt my walls crumble down
Naked and vulnerable
Afraid to embrace the light of love

Everyday, the scars were there
Symptoms of a subconscious fear
I chose to walk the path of hate
I built a cage I could not escape...

We were dancing with daggers while staring straight into the sun
The love we had was fragile, like a loaded gun
But I'd take one in the head for you
If only you would see me through
The selfish hell I willingly cast myself into

Through a thousand nights of solitude--I longed to love
Through a thousand night of solitude--I failed to love

Your words of love are still haunting me
They cripple me like a disease
As I recall moments of true peace upon these stormy seas
At the mercy of demons driving me, full of passion for misery
I somehow long to be complete, but I have yet to accept defeat

Through a thousand nights of solitude--I longed to love
Through a thousand nights of solitude...

This is my only surrender
I felt my walls crumble down
Naked and vulnerable
I must embrace the light of love
