Have you been up so high
That to fall would be to die?
In the race are you number one?
From something are you on the run?

Do you know surrender?
Well I do

Have you gotten what you prized
Followed by emptiness inside?
Do you crave someone’s esteem?
Have you lost it in a nightmare dream?

Do you know surrender?
Well I do

Happiness I traded in
For what I thought I needed, what a sin
Nothing less than the gold
But I wanted in from the cold

Do you know surrender?
Well I do

Do you know surrender?
Well I do
