Control Lyrics - Singles - China Drum

Don't try and make yourself hate him 

He tried that one with you 

He ended up just hating himself 

And more in love with you 

You'll have to learn from all his mistakes 

The brain can lie but your heart will never fake 

He's been rushing around 

Grabbing all he can find as quickly as he could 

'Cause he knew you would 

When he saw that distant look, he had to say goodbye 

'Cause he knew you could 

People say that he's a bastard, that's an unfair use of words 

When I don't know what was going on, no, I never really heard 

Why don't you wake up to what he's got 

Do you have the time to find out if he's lost control? 

There's no point in hanging around 

If happiness can't be found, you'd better go 

He never stopped to ask you why 

He never had to try, well he was wrong 

Why don't you wake up to what you want and listen to his lines 

'Cause what you two have been going through has happened many times 

I've never seen you taking any prisoners, but I've seen you weep 

Yeah, I've seen you apologising, but thats not gonna work with me. 

I've heard you're telling everybody what you've done to him 

But that doesn't add up to a sorry and it's not gonna work with me 

He's been rushing around 

Grabbing all he can find as quickly as he could 

'Cause he knew you would 

When he saw that distant look, he had to say goodbye 

'Cause he knew you could 

Why don't you wake up to what he's got and stop filling him with lies 

'Cause what you two have been going through has happened many times 

It's happened too many times
