[Verse 1]
Sorry for keeping you waiting, I know that I'm wrong
(I wanna get it right)
And I’m sorry
Don't have a good reason to turn off my phone
(I wanna get it right)
But I got stains on my favourite sweater
And I got blame on my baby blue
(I wanna get it right)
So I'm sorry I don’t put the effort into letting you know
(I wanna get it right)

[Pre-Chorus]
You can take the girl out the city
And you can tell the girl she's pretty
But you can't change the mind of a mirror that's made it up
Up, up, up

[Chorus]
My guilt's subliminal
I'll keep it under control, oh
And your words were pivotal
I'm more than fading to let go, oh
I never meant to make you hurt
I'm missing you, for what it’s worth, and oh
So I’ll stay subliminal
Can you keep me under control?
[Verse 2]
Trying to level the field but I can't on my own
(I wanna get it right)
And I’m trying but half of my patience is already gone
(I wanna get it right)
And I got hurt in my favourite weather
And my burdens are cherry red
So I'm trying but all of my doubts have already won
(Won, won)

[Pre-Chorus]
You can take the girl out the city (Out the city)
And you can tell the girl she's pretty (Pretty)
But you can't change the mind of a mirror that’s made it up
Up, up, up

[Chorus]
My guilt's subliminal
I'll keep it under control, oh
And your words were pivotal
I'm more than fading to let go, oh
I never meant to make you hurt
I'm missing you, for what it's worth, and oh
So I'll stay subliminal
Can you keep me under control?
[Bridge]
There's no way
That you could be as disappointed in me as I am in myself
There's no way
That you could be as disappointed in me as I am in myself

[Chorus]
My guilt's subliminal
I'll keep it under control, oh
And your words were pivotal
I'm more than fading to let go, oh
I never meant to make you hurt
I'm missing you, for what it's worth, and oh
So I'll stay subliminal
Can you keep me under control?
