Lyrics

[Verse 1]
No
[Verse 2]
Your back's against the wall
There's no one home to call
You're forgetting who you are
You can't stop crying
[Verse 3]
It's part not giving in
And part trusting your friends
You'll do it all again
And I'm not lying
[Verse 4]
Standing in the way of control
You live your life
Survive the only way that you know, know
[Verse 5]
I'm doing this for you
Because it's easier to lose
And it's hard to face the truth
When you think you're dying
[Verse 6]
It's part not giving in
And part trusting your friends
You'll do it all again
But you don't stop trying
[Verse 7]
Standing in the way of control
You'll live your life
Survive the only way that you know, know
[Verse 8]
Standing in the way of control
We'll live our lives
Because we're standing in the way of control
We will live our lives
[Verse 9]
Because we're standing in the way of control
We'll live our lives
Because we're standing in the way of control
We will live our lives, lives, lives
