[Verse 1]

How can I control?

How can I let it go?

When all that shines blinds


[Verse 2]

Strap me to a carousel

Sat with me until night fell

Guess, I wanted it for all it is

Yeah, I cornered it, exhausted it


[Chorus]

Then I knew that everything I'd ever wanted had passed

And I couldn’t help it

All alone in my head

All I ever wanted, yeah

All I ever felt was scared

Lost control of myself

Again and again


[Verse 3]

Something about the way you said

You felt me slipping through your hands

Left me wondering, tumbling


[Verse 4]

We laughed until our cheeks were numb

Paid no mind to what was yet to come

Even if it meant all our chips were spent

When there's nothing left you can understand


[Chorus]

Then I knew that everything I'd ever wanted had passed

And I couldn’t help but laugh

All alone in my head

All I ever wanted, yeah

All I ever felt was scared

Lost control of myself

Again and again and again


[Outro]

Spin for me, do the thing for me

Spin for me, take it all from me

Spin for me, do the thing for me

Spin for me, take it all from me

Spin for me, do the thing for me

Spin for me, take it all from me

I never should have let you in

Spin for me, do the thing for me

Spin for me, take it all from me

Spin for me, do the thing for me

Spin for me

I never should have let you in

Spin for me, spin for me
