Never Surrender

Out in the streets, inspiration comes hard
The joker in the deck keeps handing me his card
Smiling friendly, he takes me in
Then breaks my back in a game I can't win

Juggler, hustler, what's it all about?
Everybody always wants the easy way out
Thirty gold pieces for the Judas kiss
What's a nice boy doing in a place like this?

Never surrender, keep your dreams alive
Never surrender, hold your head up high

Modern apathetics, you've got plenty of nothing to say
Some were born to follow, some will make their own way
Today you find a hero, tomorrow you forget
Looking for convenient truth, you haven't found it yet

You don't make commitments, not that far, regrets
Easy come and easy go and easy to forget
You never take responsibility
Don't you know that part of you is part of me?

Never surrender, keep your dreams alive
Never surrender, hold your head up high

Never surrender, it's easier said than done
But you got to finish what's already begun
Never thought forever seems like such a long time
Only got one life to live, it's caught up in mine

Never surrender, keep your dreams alive
Never surrender, hold your head up high
Never surrender, it cannot be denied
Never surrender, spread your wings and fly
