songs: Love Controls Us

Every morning
There’s a hallow hearted boy
Who walks out to see the world in shades of grey
He is learning
But he hasn’t learned enough to take the right way
To hold his own weight
And so he says

[c]
I could run away
From this heart ache
But I’d rather have a painful laugh with you
So I will spend my days
Thinking about the things that changed
And about all of the ways that love controls us.

She never warned him
She just took his trust and tore it
Like a note she had no heart to understand
Returned those fragments
But he hadn’t learned enough to fit the right piece
In the right place
And so he says

[c]

They’re making it work alright
They’re making it work but it hurts him
They’re making him work right through the pain
They’re making it work alright
Yeah there’s a light at the end of the tunnel babe, so he says

[c]
