This is the throne where hatred keeps What is sown is never reaped This is the blindness that you need This is the vein on which you feed
Surrender It's just one twist I will surrender My aching wrist I can't remember It's never enough I will surrender It's never enough
Oh my darling One for all and all for one Give me reason The quest for truth Give me something Disobedient yet responsive To believe in Out of darkness there will be light
Close your eyes Close your eyes
This is the dignity that you felt This is the gutter where you have knelt
Surrender It's just one twist I will surrender My aching wrist I can't remember It's never enough I will surrender It's never enough
This is your wretched, heavin' high These are the shamed, the damned, the blamed I can smell the slowly spreadin' stain Oh, the burden of shame
Surrender It's just one twist I will surrender My aching wrist I can't remember It's never enough I will surrender It's never enough
Oh my darling It's a war with no winners Give me reason When violence hits home Give me something Ignorance is your religion To believe in Take this spear and heal thyself
Close your eyes Close your eyes
Disobedient One too many lies Disobedient It's the greatest swindle Disobedient Everything falls into place Disobedient Take these words and feel thyself
This is your wretched, heavin' high These are the shamed, the damned, the blamed I can smell the slowly spreadin' stain Oh, the burden of shame
Oh my darling Give me reason Give me something To believe in
