[Verse 1]
Please excuse me for the way I act
So I've asked too many times
Drawing circles to show where I'm at
As if they'd lead me to divine

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I know I like the idea of providence
So I force my head low
And always spit my blood on the table
And though I like the idea of confidence

[Chorus]
I'm in love with control
I'm in love with control
I'm in love with control
I'm in love with control

[Verse 2]
Please excuse me for the way I act
So I can't seem to recall
Too aware I've asked too many times
Is it okay, I'd like to hold on?

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Though I like the idea of permanence
I keep my mouth shut
And only try to speak when I'm able
Though I like the idea of you sleeping next to me
I'm waiting just to watch you go
[Chorus]
I'm in love with control
I'm in love with control
I'm in love with control
I'm in love with control

[Bridge]
Though I like the idea of providence
I know I can't see straight
With my head through the table
Though I like the idea of confidence
You're pulling like a thread here
Unraveled in my hand

[Chorus]
I'm in love with control
I'm in love with control
I'm in love with control
I'm in love with control

[Outro]
I'm in love with control
I'm in love with control
I'm in love with control
