Need for control

I don't think you'll ever step back
Father's devotion unbroken
The pattern laid out

Let him face the consequences
You brought yourself to stand
To answer to what we've chosen

All the same, love
This would be so much easier
If you'd let go of full control

You just hold on
And let him face this on his own
Give up your need,
Your need for control

Too afraid to watch him fall
For his choices
I feel heartless
'Cause he's breaking down our family
And how can you sit there silently?
I'm holding up now to intervine
So listen to me

Oh, this would be so much easier
If you lose your need for control
You just hold on
And let him face this on his own

Give up your need, your need for control

And it's all in the blood
Let him face this on his own
For the one that you love
It might be setting you back

Oh, this would be so much easier
If you give up your,
Your need for control

You're just prolonging
Past mistakes

Let him face this on his own
Give up your need,
Your need for control
