BASECAMP – Surrender lyrics
[Verse 1]
You shout cease fire
But the booms and bangs keep drowning out your cries
And the world comes crashing down before your eyes
And before mine
I cannot tell what's right
I beg calm down
But it's more to you to stay and
Stand your ground
Don't you see we're losing more than what we found
Through this fire and dust
We'll never come around
[Chorus]
I'd lay down my gun
If I weren't the only one
And I'd give up this fight
If it meant we'd sleep tonight
I'd go gladly through the flames
If it meant you'd speak my name
With love in your voice
[Verse 2]
You want no more
Because to win's no longer worth the damage done
And if you could I know you take it back and run
And you can't be blamed
Cuz if I could I'd do the same
[Chorus]
I'd lay down my gun
If I weren't the only one
And I'd give up this fight
If it meant we'd sleep tonight
I'd go gladly through the flames
If it meant you'd speak my name
With love in your voice
You shout cease fire
But the booms and bangs keep drowning out your cries
And the world comes crashing down before your eyes
And before mine
I cannot tell what's right
I beg calm down
But it's more to you to stay and
Stand your ground
Don't you see we're losing more than what we found
Through this fire and dust
We'll never come around
[Chorus]
I'd lay down my gun
If I weren't the only one
And I'd give up this fight
If it meant we'd sleep tonight
I'd go gladly through the flames
If it meant you'd speak my name
With love in your voice
[Verse 2]
You want no more
Because to win's no longer worth the damage done
And if you could I know you take it back and run
And you can't be blamed
Cuz if I could I'd do the same
[Chorus]
I'd lay down my gun
If I weren't the only one
And I'd give up this fight
If it meant we'd sleep tonight
I'd go gladly through the flames
If it meant you'd speak my name
With love in your voice
