Bad (Songs of Surrender) Lyrics

If I twist and turn away
If I tear myself in two again
If I could, you know I would
If I could, I would let it go
Surrender, this is a song of surrender

If I could throw this lifeless lifeline to the wind
Leave these jars of clay, you can break that, break, break
Into the lights but out of the flame
Into a time of innocence again

If I could ask for help, I know what you would say
You could only have it all, if you give it all away
You could only have it all, if you give it all away

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

So let it go, so not to fade away
Let it go, so not to fade away
I'm wide awake, wide awake
Wide awake, I'm not sleeping
Oh, no

If they should ask
Or maybe you could tell me what I should say
'Cause all glory fades to blue and black
Blue silken sky and our burning flag
Where colours crash, collide in teenage eyes

If I could, you know I would
If I could, I would let it go
This dose ignition, dislocation
No revelation in temptation
Just isolation

So let go, so not to fade away
Let it go, so not to fade away
I'm wide awake, I'm wide awake
Wide awake, I'm not sleeping
Oh, no

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
