Christina Perri - surrender

Surrender, mm
Surrender, mm

I can make a list, a million things I need to fix
I make everyone crazy, is it somethin' about me?
I keep tightenin' my grip, but I aim so much I miss
And I'm fightin' the river

When I try to hold it all together
But it's just not gettin' better

Surrender, mm
Surrender, mm

It's breakin' my heart 'cause I don't understand
Why so much is out of my hands, I have to remember
Surrender, mm

Oh, I keep learnin' the hard way
Oh, keep forgettin' how to pray
Someone tell me I'm okay

I climbed a mountain I could not resist
And I hit bottom at the top of it
I was broken wide open

There's a freedom in the freefall
Wanna scream, but I whisper

Surrender, mm
Surrender, oh
Oh, surrender (it's breakin' my heart 'cause I don't understand)
(I just surrender instead)
I've got to remember, ooh (it's breakin' my heart 'cause I don't understand)
(Why so much is out of my hands)
(I have to remember)

(Surrender, surrender)
Surrender, mm (oh)
