Savatage - Surrender lyrics

When in your life did you surrender

Late in the night do you remember

What were the dreams that you betrayed then

Would you go back if you could save them now

Did you believe there was something more

Waiting behind some forgotten door

Or was that all long before

You felt the pressure grow inside your brain

Where every nerve is on fire

You start to wonder if you're going insane

It's not a fate you desired

Time is running down

Moments of reason that we hope to find

Are we a thought somewhere in god's mind

A work of art that he has never signed

No

Children and mirrors have no memory

They reflect us for that is all they see

They are the us that is still yet to be

And so we carry on

The clock is ticking and your growing afraid

That the end will be violent

You walk the edges all around your own grave

And the gods they are silent

Or can not be found

Searching your mind for correspondence from

Joseph and mary and their only son

Is their silence something you have done

No

And in the end what have you defied

To end up so nearly crucified

Just let me know when you decide

That all hope is gone

Come and see him dying

For it's really quite a show

Walking on a wire

Though he never seems to know

Even when he's falling

You can see a little smile

Figures that he's flying

Only for a little while

The ground is rushing towards him

But he never sees it there

Lives his life in pieces

Always taking every dare

What will be the ending

Well i'm sure that I don't know

The ground is getting closer

Come and see the show

See the show

See the show

See the show
