Control Yourself

its such a shame about it
you couldn't do without it
its a scary game you chose to play
trap set and you stepped into it
all said but ya couldn't do it
saw the line but you crossed it anyway

now you're drivin a car that got no brakes
and it don't move in reverse
best to get out and start again
cuz you're just gonna make it worse

oh, you don't have all the answers
you keep making the same mistakes
listen to me say it
control yourself control yourself
you got alot to learn
don't let the candle burn too low
listen to me say it
control yourself, control yourself

smart move would be to stop it
but you simply refuse to drop it
bull-headed blood runs through your veins
you give up all protection
seein in only one direction
its time to pull back on the reins

if you keep going down the path you're on
it's gonna cost you dearly
take a step back look and at yourself
cause you just gotta see it clearly

oh, you don't have all the answers
you keep making the same mistakes
listen to me say it
control yourself control yourself
you got alot to learn
don't let the candle burn too low
listen to me say it
control yourself, control yourself
oh, you don't have all the answers
you keep making the same mistakes
listen to me saying
control yourself, control yourself
you got alot to learn
don't let the candle burn too low
listen to me say it
control yourself, control yourself

ooh, keep on making the same mistakes
control yourself
control yourself

you got a lot to learn
don't let the candle burn too low
listen to me say it
control yourself

control yourself
hmm. you got a lot to learn
don't let the candle burn too low
listen to me say it
