Control Video (MV)

Now that you're all gone
Let me take a moment to myself
And find out what you're on
Cuz these drugs don't seem to help
I just replay the same scenario ten times over
And then ten times more
Until I'm ten times closer
To the man who I never wanted to be
And then I fall back into the act
Of a sad trapped addict
Whose two halves have half of him keep askin
Would nine year old Kevin still be proud of me
Well let's find out
Maybe I'll quit this 9 to 5 tomorrow
Find a life that's truly mine
And find some pride that I can't swallow
Lead the life they'll wanna live
And be the man they'll wanna follow
Be the kid who really did it
Be the kid they'll wanna follow
Now that you're all gone
Let me take a moment to myself
And find out what you're on
Cuz these drugs don't seem to help
When I look through old family photos
Why's it me that I don't recognize
Now when I take pictures
Something's different in my eyes
Maybe it's the fact
That you're still trapped inside
For me to relive every moment
That you ripped away my pride
Little did you know
That I'd grow up to defy
Everything you said I couldn't do
I do it every time
I've lost touch with myself
I'm too busy being blind
To the chances stacked against me
I'm just too locked on the prize
I've watched far too many friends give up on far too many dreams
But that's all far from me, I'll be the best you've ever seen
This time next year green could be more green
And I'd just hit back cuz enough just ain't enough for me
I know I'm always gonna want more
Control's got me by the neck
Someone check my head for horns
Cuz I'm pretty sure they're comin in
I know I'm always gonna want more
Control's got me by the neck
Someone check my head for horns
Cuz I'm pretty sure they're comin in
Now that you're all gone
Let me take a moment to myself
