The cut is deep, but never deep enough for me 
It doesn't hurt enough to make me forget 
One moment of relief is never long enough 
To keep the voices in my head 
From stealing my peace 

Oh, control 
It's time, time to let you go 

Perfection has a price 
But I cannot afford to live that life 
It always ends the same; a fight I never win 

Oh, control 
It's time, time to let you go 

I'm letting go of the illusion 
I'm letting go of the confusion 
I can't carry it another step 
I close my eyes and take a breath 
I'm letting go, letting go 

There were scars before my scars 
Love written on the hands that hung the stars 
Hope living in the blood that was spilled for me 

Oh, control 
It's time, time to let you go... 
Control 
It's time, time to let you go
