Oh, I'm a slut to my city of steel and grime
I make myself pretty with wasted time
I see my friends, their dreams are dead
We take the city subway like a bullet to our heads

But lately I was alone on a mountainside
The silence was nigh all around
And it swept me up and it let me down
And all my little violences surrendered to the sound

Oh, they say
Surrender, surrender, surrender surrender
Surrender, surrender, surrender, surrender

Oh, and I danced with the devil and he begged me
To slaughter every woman that I was for a quarter century
But I can't return, I can only look back
At all the ruin I was and the grace that I lacked

And I'll swallow my sorrow and drop my sword
They medicated me last week, and I was scared but I said sure
I can't resist it anymore, I don't want to fight like before
But I've built me a home and I don't want to go

So I was so high at the stadium
When we sang along to the band
And it played us in and it played us out
And all our little violences surrendered to the sound

And they said,
Surrender, surrender, surrender surrender
Surrender, surrender, surrender, surrender
Surrender, surrender, surrender surrender
Surrender, surrender, surrender, surrender

I pray my rage is a fire that wipes me clean, and
My sorrow's a tsunami submarine
And my heart is a bunker while my hurt is a hurricane, and
The land's in wreckage but I know I can love again

My rage is a fire that wipes me clean, and
My sorrow's a tsunami submarine
And my heart is a bunker while my hurt is a hurricane, and
The land's in wreckage but I know I can love again

Oh, I was alone by a waterfall
I knew I could jump and be dead
My face all white while my neck's all red
'Cause your love was the last thing that shot through my head

Oh, I was alone on the lakeshore
My sorrows were over and drowned
I saw the light shining through the clouds
And all my little violences surrendered to my sound
