Lost Control Lyrics
Anathema
Lyrics
Life... has betrayed me once again
I accept that some things will never change.
I've let your tiny minds magnify my agony
and it's left me with a chemical dependency for sanity.
Yes, I am falling... how much longer till I hit the ground?
I can't tell you why I'm breaking down.
Do you wonder why I prefer to be alone?
Have I really lost control?
I'm coming to an end
I've realized what I could have been.
I can't sleep so I take a breath and hide behind my bravest mask
I admit I've lost control
Lost control...
