State Of Control Lyrics - Barren Cross

It's a world that won't let you feel 

You grow up very fast in sorrow 

The drinking damage a parent provokes 

Can ruin a child's tomorrow 

No, no, no, no 

Do you feel you're abused 

By a bottle of liquor? 

The alcohol will cause the fall 

State of control 

It never wants to let you go 

State of control 

Like chains around your body and soul 

There's no support they don't care at all 

You're lonely 'cause you feel abandoned 

But there's a way to heal the pain 

With God again and again 

You know, I know 

Keeping secrets from your friends 

That your mothers sick 

It's like I said being drunk is dead 

State of control 

It never wants to let you go 

State of control 

Like chains around your body and soul 

And the soul of your children 

You feel like you've always been walked on 

And frankly I don't blame you a bit 

I see your unhappiness and I say 

No, no, no, no 

State of control 

It never wants to let you go 

State of control 

Like chains around your body and soul
