I Surrender

I surrender

I never thought I'd admit defeat

I surrender

I guess the boat was meant to sink

I have lived the storm

Don't trust what's underneath

Even the stillest water

Can pull you out to sea

I'm not a quitter

And neither are you

For better or worse

But now what do we do?

I have tried to fill the holes

In the boat you abandoned

And now that this ship is sinking

It's a good thing I know how to swim

I don't want to leave

But I might die if I stay

Going down, down, down

To a watery grave

I never meant to steer

Our ship astray

I'm sorry I lost my way

I surrender

Myself to me

I surrender

And it's bittersweet

It's the same old story

You know it from the start

It's the happily ever after

That tore us apart

I don't want to leave

But I might die if I stay

Going down, down, down

To a watery grave

I never meant to steer

Our ship astray

I'm sorry I lost my way
