I leave before being left

I decide

Whether to be alone or not

I run before I'll ever have the chance to see

your back fading in distance

I choose

Before you realize

It was the right choice

I cry before you speak the words you want to speak

I'm in charge

Of when I'll mourn for you when you let go

I'm in control

I'm in control

I'M IN CONTROL

I decide so you don't have to

I choose so I don't fear the time you will

I flee in hope of a different ending

An ending where I'm not surprised

I'm not hurt

I'm not deceived

I know the story and it's always the same

I know the story so I change the end

I know the story so I write my own

I know the story and I can't stand it anymore

I leave before being left

I cry before being hurt

I run before they want to run

I'm in control

I'm in control

I'M IN CONTROL

changing the things that are out of control

hitting the breaks won't work anymore

So I press the gas and I crush it myself

Cause then I'm in control

I'm in control

I'M IN CONTROL
