[Verse 1]

Crave control

My pride is cold

Fight with you

Then let it go

I've gotta learn to be wrong

To surrender

Clean the mess when the mess is my fault


[Pre-Chorus]

Sorry's so hard to say

The ones I love, I push away

Push away


[Chorus]

By the time you open up your eyes

It's too late, they've already gone away

They're too far

That's when you start to care


[Verse 2]

I crave control

Make you leave when I need you the most

I didn't mean to cut you down

I've gotta learn to be wrong

To surrender

Clean the mess when the mess is my fault


[Pre-Chorus]

Sorry's so hard to say

The ones I love, I push away

Push away


[Chorus]

By the time you open up your eyes

It's too late, they've already gone away

They're too far

That's when you start to care
