My Surrender

Hold the line
I would not let you in
'Cause love is just a masquerade
In a war I’ll never win
But I can’t find a way
To keep you at bay
Without giving up
It’s all I want
Yeah, I am giving in
For so long
Running from a love
That would last forever
But I’ll hold on
To this until the end
You took your world
And tore it down
Just to turn my heart around
So I won’t run again
This is my surrender
Stood my ground
Through the ones that came before
Never backed down
Never was afraid
When there were armies at the door
And I’ll weather the tides
And lay down my pride
'Cause with you somehow
My guard is down
And I can’t fight it anymore
The war is won
The war is won
For so long
Running from a love
That would last forever
