Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
I知 gonna choke when it really counts
I知 gonna get kicked when I知 down
I値l give you so much satisfaction you値l drown in it, in it
(Verse 2)
I知 gonna trip at the highest speed,
Play so bad your ears will bleed
I値l give you so much satisfaction you値l need a rest曜ust to breathe
(Pre-Chorus)
And all this fighting will amount to nothing more
You bend to break, I did it before
(Chorus)
Is it gonna be easier
Is it gonna be more than I can take
If I surrender, if I surrender
Is it gonna be easier
Is it gonna be more than I can take
If I surrender, if I surrender
(Verse 3)
My heart breaks and I feel no pain
My voice cracks yet it痴 still the same
I値l give you so much satisfaction you値l blame yourself for once
(Verse 4)
Apologize for what I never did
My darkest secrets and everything I hid
I値l give you so much satisfaction you値l quit your complaining
But I know you never will
(Pre-Chorus)
And all this fighting will amount to nothing more
You bend to break, I did it before
(Chorus)
Is it gonna be easier
Is it gonna be more than I can take
If I surrender, if I surrender
Is it gonna be easier
Is it gonna be more than I can take
If I surrender, if I surrender
(Bridge)
They took from you all they could get
You hold on tight to what is left (you値l never give up like you used to)
They took from you all they could get
You hold on what did you expect (you値l never give up like you used to)
You値l never give up like you used to
You値l never give up like you used to
(Chorus)
Is it gonna be easier
Is it gonna be more than I can take
If I surrender, if I surrender
Is it gonna be easier
Is it gonna be more than I can take
If I surrender, if I surrender
Is it gonna be easier (oh)
Easier Oh, will it amount to nothing more
You bend to break, just like before
(Verse 5)
I知 gonna choke When it really counts
I知 gonna get kicked when I知 down
I値l give you so much satisfaction
When I surrender, I surrender to you.
