[Verse 1]
Woke up to the wreck you left behind
Pieces of my heart scattered, unaligned
You laughed while setting fire to my trust
Now I'm sifting through the ashes and the dust
You were chaos, I was naive
Now I'm taking back the life you tried to leave
[Pre-Chorus]
Every lie, every bruise, every scar you left
I'm learning how to breathe through the theft
You're the storm, I'm the eye in the rage
I'll write my own ending on this page
[Chorus]
I'm doing damage control, fixing what you broke
Picking up the pieces, I won't choke
Rising from the fire, I won't lose my soul
Standing on the ruins, taking back control
I'm cleaning up your mess, I'm stronger than before
Breaking every chain, I won't hurt no more
I'm shaking off your games, I'm taking back my role
I'm the queen of my life, running damage control
[Post-Chorus]
Damage control
Ohh, damage control
Ohh, damage control
Ohh, damage control
[Verse 2]
You thought I'd drown in the mess you made
But I've turned the chaos into my parade
Every reckless word, every twisted smile
I've spun it into armor, and I've walked the mile
You left a warzone, I found my song
In the echoes of your lies, I learned where I belong
[Pre-Chorus]
Every scar, every cut, I wear them like gold
Your storm tried to break me, but I won't fold
I'm the flame, I'm the spark in disguise
Lighting up the night, no more alibis
[Chorus]
I'm doing damage control, fixing what you broke
Picking up the pieces, I won't choke
Rising from the fire, I won't lose my soul
Standing on the ruins, taking back control
I'm cleaning up your mess, I'm stronger than before
Breaking every chain, I won't hurt no more
I'm shaking off your games, I'm taking back my role
I'm the queen of my life, running damage control
[Post-Chorus]
Damage control
Ohh, damage control
Ohh, damage control
Ohh, damage control
[Bridge]
Your shadow tried to crawl inside my mind
I let it linger, then left it behind
I'm the arsonist of my own despair
Lighting fires of freedom in the midnight air
You were chaos, I was the storm in disguise
But I'm rising up, seeing through your lies
[Breakdown]
Damage (Damage Control)
Damage (Control)
Control (damage control)
[Chorus]
I'm doing damage control, fixing what you broke
Picking up the pieces, I won't choke
Rising from the fire, I won't lose my soul
Standing on the ruins, taking back control
I'm cleaning up your mess, I'm stronger than before
Breaking every chain, I won't hurt no more
I'm shaking off your games, I'm taking back my role
I'm the queen of my life, running damage control
[Post-Chorus]
Damage control
Ohh, damage control
Ohh, damage control
Ohh, damage control
[Outro]
Damage control, I won't fall to you
Damage control, I'll rise through the blue
Damage control, I've learned to fight and roll
Damage control, I own my heart, my soul
Ohh, damage control
Ohh, damage control
Ohh, damage control
Ohh, damage control
