I Surrender
You let me go
Saying that I'm crazy
But you don't know that I see
Those fingers that string me along
You almost had me there
I believed myself to be a doll
Until I've managed to open my eyes
Shattering the delusion
When I saw you, the real you
And your other hand
I was freed from my doom
Of not seeing the nothing that you felt
It was your obsession of being in control
Now that I am free, I will return the favor
I will free you from the shackles
Weighing down those dexterous hands
That marionetted my thoughts
And enslaved my heart.
You kept me at a distance
I couldn't see past your guise
To unveil your true form
So I surrender
I'll let you go and not look back
I will fulfill your prophecy
And put an end to the story
Of how your last doll left
I won't fall for you again.
Not for your charm
Not for your antics
Rest your mind
I surrender
- Jomur Islam
