Lyrics

First they saddle you with their fears and then they
make you swallow all your tears and then they
leave a lot a lot a lot of loneliness and then they
deny the holes and the emptiness and then they

Critisize the way you live and then they
say they got a lot a lot a lot of love to give and then they
put you up with survival strategies and they
say that they love while they fill their own needs

But oh - I can feel them pullin'
'nd - I can feel them pullin' me inside
but oh - you really gotta do your own thinking
and maybe just surrender
maybe just surrender to the unknown

We've gotta step out of the comfort zone and then we
gotta try to feel we're not alone and then we
really gotta find some peace in change and then we
gotta think for ourselves and mentally rearrange

What's the thought thought that you support and then we
gotta sing sing to our innerchord and then we
gotta realize it's the interconnections and
pull it pull it pull it forward in unknown directions

Probably there will be confrontation and
maybe a matter of miscommunication
there's gonna be challenges
there's gonna be a lot to do
but it makes you feel like a crusader of truth

'Nd oh - I can feel them pullin'
'nd oh - I can feel them pullin' me inside
but oh - you really gotta do your own thinking
so maybe just surrender
maybe just surrender - to the unknown

Maybe just surrender
maybe just surrender to the unknown
