Control Lyrics by Shae Altered

Sleep Talk

2016

[Verse 1]
Hold me underwater
I will bite back harder
They say don't bite a hand that feeds you
Lead this horse to water
Don’t you look it in the mouth
Your fingers won’t make it past my teeth

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Oh, I throw bricks at glass castles
Just to see if their brittle walls will break

[Chorus]
I get a little bit outta control when my head is full
Oh god, it's scaring me
Feel like a firecracker in a glass box ready to go off
Don’t stand so close to me

[Verse 2]
Come hell or high water
I am not your martyr
The devil will advocate for me
My skeletons have closets and they keep me locked inside
They don’t know that I have got their keys

[Pre-Chorus 2]
This house in my head’s a great divide
Cannonballs running loose inside

[Chorus]
I get a little bit outta control when my head is full
Oh god, it's scaring me
Feel like a firecracker in a glass box ready to go off
Don’t stand so close to me

(I get a little bit, little bit, little bit)
(I get a little bit, don't stand so)

[Bridge]
They say I am lonely 'cause I build walls instead of bridges
But I’m all out of bricks and all I’ve left is stitches
They say I am lonely 'cause I build walls instead of bridges
But I’m all out of bricks and all I’ve left is stitches
All I've left is stitches

(I get a little bit)

[Chorus]
I get a little bit outta control when my head is full
Oh god, it's scaring me
Feel like a firecracker in a glass box ready to go off
Don’t stand so close to me

[Outro]
(I get a little bit, little bit, little bit)
(I get a little bit, don't stand so)
(I get a little bit, little bit, little bit)
(I get a little bit)
Don't stand so close to me
