[Verse 1]

Standing on the sidewalk

Watching all the world go by

Nothing's ever easy, brother

Don't you ask me why


[Pre-Chorus]

Cuz these are our fears

And we don't need nothin' more

And this is our moment

I can't believe we

Traveled so far


[Chorus]

Control, you gotta let go

Why only make this [slide?] forever

Bounce like an echo

Love like a chokehold

Why won't you let this die

This time


[Verse 2]

Walking down the seafront

Trying to keep my senses dull

You tell me that I'm helpless

Waiting for the tide to turn


[Pre-Chorus]

But this is my skin

And it won't feel nothin' more

Cuz this is your bed

And I must assist you

Lying in alone


[Chorus]

Control, you gotta let go

Why only make this [?] forever

Bounce like an echo

Love like a chokehold

Why won't you let this die


[Bridge]

So let the night become the dawn

And darkness overbear us all

I see the light within you start to fade

So let the night become the dawn

And darkness overbear us all

I see the light within you start to fade

Start to fade

I watch you fade


[Chorus]

Control, you gotta let go

Why only make this [?] forever

Bounce like an echo

Love like a chokehold

Why won't you let this die


[Outro]

Control, you gotta let go

Why only make this [?] forever

Bounce like an echo

Love like a chokehold

Why won't you let this die

This time
