Control

[Verse 1]
Lover, you've got your mother's eyes
Lonely and pale as English skies
Don't be so cold, it's only me
There's only a spark so let it breathe

[Verse 2]
Gifted and young, now take the wheel
Broken and sleepless you may feel
Drifting away from self-control
Keep your head as it all unfolds
Keep your head as it all unfolds

[Pre-Chorus]
Lights flicker out in the dark
Pray to go back to the start

[Chorus]
'Cause life was easier when you never dared to dream
Before desire swept us away
The darkest hours show things are never what they seem
Control, remain, push on again

[Verse 3]
Rattling gates down Albany
Braking in late, just you and me
Talking to he who left us here
Didn't know we'd last these long years
I didn't know we'd last these long years

[Pre-Chorus]
Lights flicker out in the dark
Pray to go back to the start

[Chorus]
'Cause life was easier when you never dared to dream
Before desire swept us away
The darkest hours show things are never what they seem
Control, remain, push on again
Control, remain, push on again
