Your back's against the wall
There's no-one home to call
You're forgetting who you are
You can't stop crying
It's part not giving in
And part trusting your friends
You do it all again 
And I'm not lying

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Standing in the way of control
You live your life
Survive the only way that you know

I'm doing this for you
Because it's easier to lose
And it's hard to face the truth
When you think you're dying
It's part not giving in
And part trusting your friends
You do it all again
But you don't stop trying

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

[x4]
Because Standing in the way of control
You live your life

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Standing in the way of control
We live our lives
Because we're standing in the way of control
We will live our lives 
Because we're standing in the way of control
We live our lives
Because we're standing in the way of control
We will live our lives

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Your back's against the wall
There's no-one home to call
You're forgetting who you are
You can't stop crying
It's part not giving in
And part trusting your friends
You do it all again
You don't stop trying

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Standing in the way of control
Survive the only way that you know
