It takes a lot to retain control Over something so permanent unravel and unfold This addiction to the thrill and the constant spill Of tarnished breath gliding through the air Oh how do you find your way out of here It's a lot to try and nullify the bliss Can you picture yourself lead astray from this So could you raise your glass in between the mist As it draws around you and it starts to hiss Is it really a nightmare that you'd miss But only you Only you know how Only you Only you know how Do you know what it is you gotta overcome Can you try and commit to yourself as one Nobody governs your mind or dictates your fun Has a hold on you before your day has begun Could you turn away and try and start to run Follow your life under a different sun But only you Only you know how Only you Only you know how You know how it kills you in the end But you keep on taking it taking it in And why do you wanna be there don't pretend That you can't erase it replace it Cause you know how Cause you know how Only you Only you know how Only you Only you know how
