Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Wide awake in this violet city
Where it washes over me
It hurts to say that I want you with me
Just draped across my face
I can't help myself the moment that I let it go
It's when I find I'm in control, in control
I need somethin' else the moment that I let it go
It's when I find I'm in control, I'm in control
[Verse 2]
In control, in control
I can't help myself the moment that I let it go
It's when I find I'm in control, I'm in control
[Verse 3]
In a maze of my expectation
I just feel so far away
Holding on to these empty spaces
As I try to find my way
'Cause I'm somewhere else
Surrounded by the city shelf
Tryin' to appease all my desires
'Cause I'm somewhere else
Believe me, I'm beside myself
I've been tryin' to change
I can't help myself the moment that I let it go
It's when I find I'm in control, in control
I need somethin' else the moment that I let it go
It's when I find I'm in control, I'm in control
[Verse 4]
I can't help myself the moment that I let it go
It's when I find I'm in control, I'm in control
[Verse 5]
When I find I'm in control, in control
