"You Can't Control It" lyrics

"You Can't Control It"

Understand one thing
If and when you drink
From this vast ocean
You can't control it
Nah, nah
You can't control it

Mom forget to tuck you in?
Make you begin a war within your head
One that you could never win
Send in the troops and insecurities
What doesn't matter in the end
So daddy told you hold your chin up son and

Understand one thing
If and when you drink
From this vast ocean
You can't control it
Nah, nah
Nah, you can't control it

With the procession underway
Understand the magnitude of the melodies that they make
Oh, did it fill your lungs with rage?
What's the matter, did catastrophe get your tongue tied in the fray?
When the band began to play
Daddy wiped the tears away, he said son, please

Understand one thing
If and when you drink
From this vast ocean
You can't control it
Nah, nah
Nah, you can't control it
Nah, nah
Nah, you can't control it
Nah, nah
Nah, you can't control it
