Surprise Lyrics


Dark sunrise from the night on the run
I’ve gone blind from the sight of the sun
A heart full of truth ‘cause I paid my dues
A head full of noise and something to lose

But she
Talks me down from the edge
And she
Talks me down from the ledge

[Chorus]
Surprise, surprise for you
No lies, just eyes for you
Teach me all that you know
So that I will bask in your glow

A light shoots out with a beam so bright
Your angels dance for your delight
You’ve got nothing at all but you hold on tight
It’s a dangerous world but you live life right

And she
Is the world to me
And she
Is the world to me

[Chorus]

And she
Is the world to me
And she
Is the world to me

Yeeeeeah Woooooh

[Chorus]

Surprise
  • This was released as the second single from The Sun Comes Out Tonight. Speaking to In the Now Magazine , frontman Richard Patrick stated the song "is, like, a no-brainer." He added: "It should be a nice, successful song for us. I don't mean to get cocky, but it really is one of those songs that we wrote that, you feel like you were just watching it happen, even though you were writing the lyrics and stuff and you were playing the guitar. It's just one of those songs that just kind of…. It just kind of wrote itself."
  • When Richard Patrick spoke to us about the song, he recalled: "When I did 'Surprise' on this new record, I'm like, 'That's golden. That's the s--t. That's going to speak to people.'"
  • The song's music video was directed by Gus Black, who has previously worked with Deftones and Eels.
