Control Lyrics by Western Daughter

Driftwood Songs

2017

You were trying to find where you lost control
When I picked you up by your collarbones
Was it the day she left? Or the day that you let her go?

Yeah, you’ve been trying to find where you lost your touch
Was there something more? Did you do enough?
Or was it pedigree? Were we simply fucked from the start?

We’re like empty glass bottles being filled in the rain
Pour me out, I am empty again
I wanna feel the weight of a plastic soul
Something heavy, something whole
Something not quite so easily broken

You're not in control
You’re not in control
You’re not in control
You’re not in control
You’re not in control
You’re not in control
You’re not in control
You’re not in control

When you lost control
Were you far from home?
Or right down the road
Covered in snow?
Will you ever know?
Will it stay untold?
Your brain overloads
Feel it decompose
Would you like to know
What lays in my soul?
What’s corrupt is foretold
And I can’t unload
So you lost control
A mind in revolt
A pitch-black shadow

When you lost control
Were you far from home?
Or right down the road
Covered in snow?
Will you ever know?
Will it stay untold?
Your brain overloads
Feel it decompose
Would you like to know
What lays in my soul?
What’s corrupt is foretold
And I can’t unload
So you lost control
A mind in revolt
A pitch-black shadow
Worse when you’re alone
But you’re not alone
You’re not alone
You’re not alone
You’re not alone
You’re not alone
No
No
