Evanescence: Surrender Meaning
Surrender Lyrics
You were so confused
Now that you've decided to stay
We'll remain together
You can't abandon me
You belong to me
Breathe in and take my life in you
No longer myself only you
There's no escaping me, my...

The song seems to be about a girl who cannot get over the fact that the guy she loves, has left her for someone else.
Is this real enough for you
You were so confused
Now that you've decided to stay
We'll remain together
It is clear from above lines, that the person she is craving for is overtaking her mind and soul, and she has started living with him in her own little world. Her imagination gets strong day by day and she is asking her imaginary love if this world is real enough, and by being in her memory he can live forever.
Breathe in and take my life in you
No longer myself only you
There's no escaping me, my love
Surrender
She has lost her mind to the point where her existence is purely for holding her past. She is inviting the madness to take over her, and her life belongs to the world she has created within. She is exerting that there is no way he can run this time, and should simply surrender to her will, so that he acts the way she imagines things.
You can't abandon me
You belong to me
Shows the pain she is going through upon losing him to someone else. Her obsession is clear, that he belongs to her.
Darling, there's no sense in running
You know I will find you
Everything is perfect now
We can live forever
If in her mind, she can't forget the bitter past she had, and she is telling her imaginary bf that no matter how bad things were, the memory of him cannot hide from her and she is telling her love inside that everything will be the way he asked for. -
This song clearly talks about how he/she is stalking the person she/he loves so much! She/He is infatuated by that person!

Anytime I hear this song I imagine a giant Snake woman chasing a sexy werewolf guy in a forest.

This song is about how the girl has been mistreated so many times by her boyfriend that she decided to change into this cold hearted woman. So he was going to leave her but he felt sorry because she was weak until she developed this cold, shallow new personality that now he's scared and regretting ever breaking her heart and wants her to change but she refuses and she just wants him to surrender because that old her is dead.

He leaves but still loves her so she goes after him and convinces him to stay, and never lets him go again.
