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.
Everything's alone, it's just the way I left
I can't even trace where this other life began
Driving down the same old street
Sometimes I forget to breathe
You wont ever hear me sing this one again
Far back in my memory I hear your words
But somehow someone's poisoned me and now they're cursed
Father, Son and Holy Ghost
I would never let you go
The only way it'd work is if I were provoked
Oh, you had control
Oh, so long ago
As hard as you can try, this heart of mine won't break
Go 'head and knock me down, there's so much I can take
I know that you wish me well
But darlin', I can never tell
It's tricky when your love is just some cry for help
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, you had control
Oh, so long ago
Oh, you had control
Oh, so long ago
Our pieces lingering in my head
Like rotten leaves, you're choking me with the stem
And now I see so far down this road ahead
It doesn't mean whatever the hell we said
Rain is falling here on this other side of town
I'm sure that it's clear wherever you are right now
Say you don't believe in me
Just so I can finally leave
'Cause you're the only thing that's keepin' me around
Oh, you had control
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, so long ago
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, you had control
Oh, so long ago
