It's quiter talk
I'm fluent in
Like hallelujah
When you can't win
Pack it in
Blow this town
Walk away
Retreat again
From debts unpaid
Fuel the jet
Today's the day
I love my wife
And I love my son
That rearview life
What's done is done
Moving forward
Can't look back
What's left behind
Is just whiplash
To break your neck
Leave you tamed
Beast of burden
Total wreck
Ooooh is this resignation I tender
If it is babe forgive me
I'm ready to surender
Oh my dear lord forgive me
I'm ready to surender
I fought to win
Left empty handed
Fancy footwork
But nothing landed
Except the counter
Across my chin
And out I went
Just stay down
Let go of hope
Seeing double
Rope a dope
Given in
To giving up
Ten count landed
Enough's enough
Ring the bell
The towels thrown
He dies he dies
And dies alone
Lay the flowers
Play the pipes
Cover me
With stars and stripes
Ooooh is this resignation I tender
If it is babe forgive me
I'm ready to surender
Oh my dear lord forgive me
I'm ready to surender
Ooooh is this resignation I tender
If it is babe forgive me
I'm ready to surender
Oh my dear lord forgive me
I'm ready to surender
My faith was weak
When you needed proof
No throne to break
That's the truth
No secret chord
Or marble arch
There's no victory
Just a march
Into the mire
Soul worn thin
Guess I'm history
And mortal sin
For here I halt
And lay down sword
So damn tired
Of fighting wars
I've won nothing
But more scars
Wounds for salt
To please the Lord
So here I pray
A last request
I paid the cost
Let me rest
Ooooh is this resignation I tender
If it is babe forgive me
I'm ready to surender
Oh my dear lord forgive me
I'm ready to surender
Ooooh is this resignation I tender
If it is babe forgive me
I'm ready to surender
Oh my dear lord forgive me
I'm ready to surender
