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 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 … 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
