Lyrics Cheyenne Jackson - Surrender

we talk in circles
minutes turn into hours
hours seem to fade into days

we seem to know
all the answers to our questions
it’s pride that seems to stand in our way

as we stare into a void
the could rule out our tomorrow
by questioning the facts
could we be saved?

‘cause I promised I would love you
forever and a moment
forever and an hour
forever and a day

and couldn’t we work ‘til we believed it
hold on ‘til we got through this
try a little a harder
and not surrender everything

‘cause there was I time I thought
we’d get through this
there was a time I thought we were stronger
there was a light in me
with infinite possibilities
but now the light seems to be fadin’

as we stare out into a world
that forgot that we existed
the truth remains
there’s nothing left to say

and all these pieces on the ground
we left these pieces all around
a little shred of hope
to keep us close together

I never dreamed of being free
I would have fought for everything
I never thought that we
could ever learn to surrender

and I could have loved you
forever and a moment
forever and an hour
forever and a day

and we could have tried to make us stronger
worked ‘til we got through this
tried a little harder
be we surrendered everything
we surrendered everything
