Self Control Lyrics by AJ Evans

2019

I need to get away
Stop staring at your face
For as long as I stay
It won’t let me erase
Haunted by the memory of you

There’s blood on the walls and it’s all mine
Hate that I can’t escape my mind
I ignored all the exit signs
The ones I can’t seem to find
Can't escape myself, and the things that I do

I gotta get a little self control
Not be the one that throws the sticks and stone
To sabotage myself and break my bones
I know, yeah I know
I gotta learn to be ok alone
Not need somebody there to hold me close
I gotta get a little self control
I know, yeah I know

I think I need to be alone
I’m better off on my own
So I can find the antidote
To stop myself losing hope
I am lost and I don’t know what to do

If I could find my place
I’d be able to concentrate
Stop myself staring at your face
Obsessions I need to escape
I can’t free myself from the thought of you

I gotta get a little self control
Not be the one that throws the sticks and stone
To sabotage myself and break my bones
I know, yeah I know
I gotta learn to be ok alone
Not need somebody there to hold me close
I gotta get a little self control
I know, yeah I know

Self control (I)
Sticks and stones
Break my bones
K alone (Yeah)
Hold me close (Oh)
Self control
I know, yeah I know

I gotta get a little self control
Not be the one that throws the sticks and stone
To sabotage myself and break my bones
I know, yeah I know
I gotta learn to be ok alone
Not need somebody there to hold me close
I gotta get a little self control
I know, yeah I know
