Surrender Songtext

Surrender Songtext
Well, I grew up in a broken home
I thought it didn′t wound me, but I was wrong
I learned how to be a man
Watching the fathers of my friends
It's hard getting what you need
When your mother is crying every day
I turned all that sorrow inward
I learned how to lock it away
I never let anyone in, I was solid as a stone
If something needed figuring out
I figured it out on my own
I fought with the ones that I loved most
Screaming in the dead of the night
I saw love as a battlefield
And I put up a hell of a fight
But I surrender
I surrender
Now I′ve done a lot of things wrong
But I can't blame my childhood home
Withholding forgiveness, it's living but it′s sickness
I′m ashamed that I'm too weak, to turn my life around
Tonight I just give up, I lay everything down
I never let anyone in, I was solid as a stone
If something needed figuring out
I could figure it out on my own
I fought with the ones that I loved most
Screaming in the dead of the night
I saw love as a battlefield
And I put up a hell of a fight
But I surrender
I surrender
I surrender
I thought it didn′t wound me, but I was wrong
I learned how to be a man
Watching the fathers of my friends
It's hard getting what you need
When your mother is crying every day
I turned all that sorrow inward
I learned how to lock it away
I never let anyone in, I was solid as a stone
If something needed figuring out
I figured it out on my own
I fought with the ones that I loved most
Screaming in the dead of the night
I saw love as a battlefield
And I put up a hell of a fight
But I surrender
I surrender
Now I′ve done a lot of things wrong
But I can't blame my childhood home
Withholding forgiveness, it's living but it′s sickness
I′m ashamed that I'm too weak, to turn my life around
Tonight I just give up, I lay everything down
I never let anyone in, I was solid as a stone
If something needed figuring out
I could figure it out on my own
I fought with the ones that I loved most
Screaming in the dead of the night
I saw love as a battlefield
And I put up a hell of a fight
But I surrender
I surrender
I surrender
