I have made my own way with my own thoughts and my own hands,
And I hear what you say, but I'm in control, I'm in command.
Deep inside, where there's no one but me, I'm the king of a lonely land, building on the sand.
It takes two words, spoken from the heart, to take one life and change it forever,
I lay down my will, I surrender.
I am desperately holding on to my old dreams, to my old ways,
I can't seem to go beyond my own desires and arrogant displays.
Deep inside, where there's no one but me, I'm the king of a lonely land, hiding behind a wall of self and building on the sand.
It takes two words, spoken from the heart, to take one life and change it forever,
I lay down my will, I surrender,
It takes two words, spoken from the heart, to take one life and change it forever,
I lay down my will, I surrender.
Two words will break every chain, and that truth will set me free,
It's not good for a man to be alone; I need a saviour to rescue me.
Two words, spoken from the heart, to take one life and change it forever,
I lay down my will, I surrender,
It takes two words, spoken from the heart, to take one life and change it forever,
I lay down my will, I surrender.
