Song lyrics
She reads a book from across the street, 
Waiting for someone that she’ll never meet 
Talk over coffee for an hour or two, 
She wonders why I’m always in a good mood 

Killing time before she struts her stuff, 
She needs support and I’ve become the crutch 
She’ll never know how much she means to me, 
I’d play the game but I’m the referee 

Surrender… every word, every thought, every sound 
Surrender… every touch, every smile, every frown 
Surrender… all the pain we’ve endured until now 
Surrender… all the hope that I lost, you have found 
Surrender… yourself to me 

Even though I know what I’m looking for, 
She’s got a brick wall behind her door 
I’d travel time and confess to her, 
But I’m afraid she’d shoot the messenger 

Surrender… every word, every thought, every sound 
Surrender… every touch, every smile, every frown 
Surrender… all the pain we’ve endured until now 
Surrender… all the hope that I lost, you have found 
Surrender… yourself to me 

I think I found a flower in a field of weeds, 
I think I found a flower in a field of weeds 
Searching until my hands bleed, 
This flower don’t belong to me 
This flower don’t belong to me 
Why can’t she belong to me? 
Surrender… every word, every thought, every sound 
Surrender… every touch, every smile, every frown 
Surrender… all the pain we’ve endured until now 
Surrender… all the hope that I lost, you have found 
Surrender… yourself to me 

I never had the nerve to ask, 
Has my moment come and passed?

This is the only song on the new album I don't like all the time. Sometimes it's a decent song to listen to, but other times I'd rather listen to Where Is The Line or Covered in Cowardice...or Perfect World or, basically, anything else besides this song. I give it a 2.5/5 (50%)

Good when you're in this kind of mood but kind of weird to find a song like this in an album where every other song is pretty upbeat

Maybe it was just my interpretation of the lyrics, but was this song about....getting into someones pants, so to speak.

Maybe it was just the verses "Surrender… yourself to me", "Even though I know what I’m looking for", and the ones before it only backing up how they may "owe" it to them/him.

Maybe I'm just taking a compleatly perverted perspective.

Just my interpretation.

^Nirana8, that is not at all what the song is about. It is a REAL love song, all billy talent songs are from experience. And is actually about, a circomtance Ben ( the lead singer) was in with a friend..meaning that its about him and a friend that he liked but he was too scared to her the truth. "i never had the nerve to ask, as my moments come and passed."

I love this song, one of my favs

God, I just noticed the actual lyrics to this song the other day while driving. Never paid attention before and it's totally what's going on in respect to me and a woman in my life. Great song.

It's a crappy situation and I sympathize with anyone that finds themselves in a similar situation. Here's to hope ladies and gentlemen.

And its not about "getting in someones pants". It's about someone that has fallen in that "friendship zone" with someone he is actually in love with and there appears to be no chance for them. She is oblivious to his true feelings.

I also take out of it that the girl in the song is searching for the right guy so to speak and to her it appears that this guy doesn't exist...when in reality he's sitting right in front of her. I get that from the "waiting for someone that she'll never meet" and "killing time before she struts her stuff".
