You say give in to sweet surrender

I say I’ll hate myself forever

And we can never last together

That’s when you forced my sad surrender

I still blame myself today

For what happened in the dark

Sometimes I’m ashamed to pray

To beg forgiveness for this mark

You took from me your sweet surrender

And stole my future my forever

Naïve love died with us together

Because you forced this dread surrender

Every day I spend with you

I am nervous on my guard

Everything we do we two

Makes smiles and laughter become hard

I loathe thinking of sweet surrender

The force that stole my once forever

And yet today again together

We fight against that cruel surrender
