Surrender Lyrics
Laying on your holy bed
by the hallowed door
Feeling like an infidel
Not worthy of your call
Tempted by your innocence
Beckoned to my fate
I won't face the consequence
I wouldn't hesitate
I'm a man of flesh and bone
Rapture rushing through my veins
Passion flaming in my heart
Heavenly surrender once again
Shackled like an animal
Chained to my desires
Just another sacrifice
To love's eternal fires
Tame me with your tenderness
And break my brittle heart
Easily and elegantly
Tear my world apart
I'm a man of flesh and bone
Rapture rushing through my veins
Passion flaming in my heart
Heavenly surrender once again
We're living in a world full of illusion
Everything is so unreal
My mind is in a state of confusion
But I can't deny the way I feel
I'm a man of flesh and bone
Rapture, rushing through my veins
Passion, flaming, in my heart
Heavenly surrender once again
I'm a man of flesh and bone
Rapture rushing through my veins
I'm a man of flesh and bone
Rapture rushing through my veins
by the hallowed door
Feeling like an infidel
Not worthy of your call
Beckoned to my fate
I won't face the consequence
I wouldn't hesitate
Rapture rushing through my veins
Passion flaming in my heart
Heavenly surrender once again
Chained to my desires
Just another sacrifice
To love's eternal fires
And break my brittle heart
Easily and elegantly
Tear my world apart
Rapture rushing through my veins
Passion flaming in my heart
Heavenly surrender once again
Everything is so unreal
My mind is in a state of confusion
But I can't deny the way I feel
Rapture, rushing through my veins
Passion, flaming, in my heart
Heavenly surrender once again
Rapture rushing through my veins
I'm a man of flesh and bone
Rapture rushing through my veins

Another song of Martin in bondage. "Shackled like an animal" "Laying on your holy bed by the hallowed door Feeling like an infidel Not worthy of your call"
And once again, he surrenders control to another Dominant. "I'm a man of flesh and bone Rapture Rushing through my veins Passion Flaming In my heart Heavenly surrender once again Yeah"
i absolutely love this song ...depeche mode is the BEST!
i can't belive im the only person to comment on this song!
excellent non album track. along with my joy and sea of sin, i hope they release a b side cd, because they're just as good. thanks DM!! think hes talking about falling in love and feeling the less of the two? giving in to temptation
Amazing songs (of "new" DM). Make sure you hear backstage version performed by Martin http://youtube.com/watch?v=-Dtz--gANKU (or search youtube)
This song is gorgeous, and it sounds great sung by Dave, but Martin's version on the Exciter Live In Paris dvd (it's an easter egg), where he's singing it backstage, is truly stunning.
Actually it should be:
"Feeling like an infidel Not worthy of your floor Tempted by your innocence Beckoned to my fate I will face the consequence I wouldn't hesitate"
On the versions that Martin sings those are the lyrics.
