Savatage - Surrender

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
