Control
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I gotta give up to quiet
The storm that rages inside
The way that I hid my damage pride
You gave me away
And I've had enough
I imagine the words I say to you
I'm finding strength to follow it through
I'm ready to change
I'm letting go, I'm letting go
We're only friends, We're only friends
Tonight we'll let the music free our soul
So let it show, So let it show
We can pretend, we can pretend
We're only find ourselves by loosing all
Control, control, control, control
Control, control, control, control
Control, control, control
I'm opening up
Show me a sign I can't believe
These crazy emotions flow through me
I'm gonna explode, oh
You take me away
And what is my ordinary life
I won't be afraid of what we might find a love I can hold
I'm letting go, I'm letting go
We're only friends, We're only friends
Tonight we'll let the music free our soul
So let it show, So let it show
We can pretend, We can pretend
We're only find ourselves by loosing all
Control
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
New horizon ready to paint
With every breath, you take me away
I'm letting go, I'm letting go
We're only friends, we're only friends
Tonight we'll let the music free our soul
So let it show, so let it show
We can't pretend, we can't pretend
We only find ourselves by loosing all
Control, control, control, control
Control, control, control, control
