[Verse 1] I wore my name like stone Held it too tight A small locked room Calling that my life I learned the script of pain Played it so well But every chain I kept Built me my own cell [Pre-Chorus] Then I saw the door Glowing in the dark Not a wrecking wind Just a brave, open heart I heard the silence say "You can let it go" And all I ever was Began to fold [Chorus] Surrender door, open wide Surrender door, let me die (Die to the lie) Surrender door, I walk through I leave the old skin behind (behind) Surrender door, open wide Surrender door, I rise (rise, rise) What I feared was the fire Was the sky inside [Verse 2] The victim crown fell off Quiet on the floor No more begging shadows At the wrong back door I am not the wound I am not the bruise I am the one who turns And chooses something new [Pre-Chorus] Then I saw the door Glowing in the dark Not a wrecking wind Just a brave, open heart I heard the silence say "You can let it go" And all I ever was Began to fold [Chorus] Surrender door, open wide Surrender door, let me die (Die to the lie) Surrender door, I walk through I leave the old skin behind (behind) Surrender door, open wide Surrender door, I rise (rise, rise) What I feared was the fire Was the sky inside [Bridge] Let the old shape crack Let the mask go thin What looked like an ending Was the first beginning I evaporate Into cloud and light Higher than the prison I was calling mine [Final Chorus] Surrender door, open wide Surrender door, let me die (Die to the lie) Surrender door, I walk through I leave the old skin behind (behind) Surrender door, open wide Surrender door, I rise (rise, rise) What I feared was the fire Was the sky inside
