Surrender
Cash Cash Lyrics

I was running on an empty heart
I was emotionally drained and had nothing left to give.

Not a trace of gasoline
I had no energy left to continue.

Trying to dim every single spark
I was trying to stop any strong emotions that might cause me pain.

That could hurt, that could burn all of me
I wanted to avoid any emotional pain that would be too much for me to bear.

Like a soldier on a battle ground
I felt like I was fighting in a war.

Lying wounded on the field
I was hurt and unable to continue fighting.

I was fighting along with the broken sword
I was fighting with everything I had left, even though it wasn't enough.

Now I'm caught in a war with no shield
I'm still in a difficult situation, but I have no protection or defense left.

If you hold me now
If you support me and give me comfort.

And leave me never
And never abandon me.

Say you'll stay with me forever
Promise to be with me always.

Then I surrender, surrender
I'll stop fighting and let you take care of me.

I pushed and pulled all the ones that try
I've pushed away anyone who has tried to get close to me.

Then I watched them fade away
I've seen these people drift out of my life as a result.

As I look around a vacant room
I'm alone and there's no one left.

I see nobody left here to play
There's no one left to spend time with.

'Cause I made myself a prisoner
I've trapped myself by giving in to my fears and doubts.

Shackled up by all my fears
I'm bound and restricted by my anxieties.

But I feel you breaking away, out the walls
I feel that you can help me break free from my fears and the walls that I've built up around myself.

Make them fall, make them all disappear
I want you to help me overcome my fears and doubts, so that we can be together without any obstacles or walls between us.

Hold me now
Comfort and support me.

Then I surrender, surrender
I'll allow myself to be vulnerable and let you take care of me.
