Surrender

Stepping over, stepping light
I'll discover, I don't need to fight
The mantras chanted, the rite complete
There're only ashes at my feet
It's out of my hands now

I'll hand over, I'll let go
What's forever, I'll never know
Give it all up, give it away
Don't take it back, that's what they say
And it's out of my hands now

Worry, it's scary
Too much care
Losing my hair
Trying to prepare
For something I can't see or hear or smell or even know...
There's only now
Only this note
Only this moment, take a bow
Or should I surrender

Is there chaos, is there a plan
Random patterns for every man
Invisible wires and a safety net
Or only freefall space cadets, freefall
And gravity always wins

I know the G word, I know it well
They say it'll keep me for going to hell
Whatever works, makes you content
Lets you deal with how insignificant, you are, we are, we all are
And suddenly we're gone

Worry, it's scary
Too much care
Losing my hair
Trying to prepare
For something I can't see or hear or smell or even know
There's only now
Only this note
Only this moment, take a bow
Should I surrender
