Space Control

I can't control you
Even though I try to time and time again
You've got your own mind
And history besides mine to influence your end

I'm so self-righteous
Giving more advice than you could ever heed
So please don't worry
I will give you the space that you don't know you need

Now, when I saw you in so much pain
I drew you close to me
I had some idea that I could take your problems
And set you free

I romanticized the boy who saves the helpless girl
And provides her with a perfect world
I had been seduced by thе television screens

But I can't control you
Even whеn I assume that I'm being your friend
My selfish motives
Hide behind supposes that I am a godsend

So though it hurts now
As I'm breaking the vow that I would never leave
Please don't worry
I will give you the space that you don't know you need
