Lose Control Lyrics by Teddy Swims (with Guitar Chords)
Lose Control Lyrics
Verse 1
Something's got a hold of me lately
No, I don’t know myself anymore
Feels like the walls are all closin' in
And the devil's knockin’ at my door, whoa
Verse 2
Out of my mind, how many times did I tell you
I'm no good at being alone?
Yeah, it's taking a toll on me, tryin' my best to keep
From tearin' the skin off my bones, don't you know
Chorus
I lose control
When you're not next to me
I’m fallin’ apart right in front of you, can't you see?
I lose control
When you’re not next to me, mm-hmm
Yeah, you're breakin' my heart, baby
You make a mess of me
Verse 3
Problematic
Problem is I want your body like a fiend, like a bad habit
Bad habit's hard to break when I'm with you
Yeah, I know I could do it on my own
But I want that real full-moon black magic and it takes two
Verse 4
Problematic
Problem is when I’m with you, I'm an addict
And I need some relief, my skin in your teeth
Can't see the forest through the trees
Got me down on my knees, darlin', please, oh
Chorus
I lose control
When you're not next to me
I'm fallin' apart right in front of you, can't you see?
I lose control
When you're not next to me, mm-hmm
Yeah, you're breakin' my heart, baby
You make a mess of me, yeah
Instrumental Break
Chorus
I lose control
When you're not here with me, mm
I'm fallin' apart right in front of you, can't you see?
I lose control
When you're not here with me, mm-hmm
Yeah, you're breakin' my heart, baby
You make a mess of me
