Control Lyrics by Kevin Garrett

Mellow Drama - EP

2015

[Verse 1: Kevin Garrett]
Everything's alone, it's just the way I left
I can't even trace where this other life began
Driving down the same old street
Sometimes I forget to breathe
But you won't ever hear me sing this one again
Far back in my memory I hear your words
But somehow someone's poisoned me and now they're cursed
Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
I would never let you go
The only way it'd work is if I were provoked

[Chorus: Kevin Garrett]
Ooh, you had control
Ooh, so long ago

[Verse 1: Kevin Garrett]
As hard as you can try this heart of mine won't break
Go ahead and knock me down
There's so much I can take
I know that you wish me well
But darling I can never tell
It's tricky when your love is just some cry for help

[Chorus: Kevin Garrett]
Ooh, you had control
Ooh, so long ago

Ooh, you had control
Ooh, so long ago


[Bridge: Kevin Garrett]
Our pieces lingering in my head
Like rotten leaves, you're choking me with the stench
And now I see so far down this road ahead
It doesn't mean whatever the hell we said
Rain is falling here on this other side of town
I'm sure that it's clear wherever you are right now
Say you don't believe in me, just so I can finally leave
Cause you're the only thing that's keeping me around

[Chorus: Kevin Garrett]
Ooh, you had control
Ooh, so long ago

Ooh, you had control
Ooh, so long ago
