murphy's law, occam's razor, chekhov's gun Video (MV)

My chest is sore
From this planetary force
Pulling me at my heartstrings
Pushing me back and forth
And I'm here again
Feeling forced to pretend
That I trust you
In the end

Am I even in control
Why do you play this way?
Am I even in control
Why do you give and then you take?
Am I even in control
Why do you play this way?
Am I even in control
Why do you give and then you take?

So close, but oh so far
You never warned me of this part
You had me and then let me go
Snuffed a candle with all the snow
And you're here again
Telling me you have a plan
And that you're here for me
Well are you here for me?

Am I even in control
Why do you play this way?
Am I even in control
Why do you give and then you take?
Am I even in control
Why do you play this way?
Am I even in control
Why do you give and then you take
Away

Promise me
Promise me
Promise me this isn't it
Oh I pray this isn't it
Promise me
Promise me
Promise me this isn't it
Oh I pray this isn't it
Promise me
Promise me
Promise me you won't make me quit
Oh I think I'm gonna quit

Am I even in control
Why do you play this way?
Am I even in control
Why do you give and then you take?
Am I even in control
Why do you play this way?
Am I even in control
Why do you give and then you take
Away

Away
Away
Give and then take away
Take
Take
Take
Away
