Control Lyrics - Haunted - Poe

Don't you mess with a little girl's dream 

'Cause she's liable to grow up, mean 

Surprised you to find that I'm laughin 

You thought that you'd find me in tears 

You thought I'd be crawling the walls 

Like a tiny mosquito and tremblin in fear 

Well, you may be king for the moment 

But I am a queen understand 

And I've got your pawns and your bishops 

And castles all inside the palm of my hand 

While you were lookin the other way 

While you had your eyes closed 

While you were lickin your lips 

'Cause I was miserable 

While you were sellin your soul 

While you were tearin a hole in me 

I was taking control 

Now I have taken control, control 

Now I have taken control, control 

Now I have taken control, control 

This is beginning to feel good 

Watching you squirm in your shoes 

A small bead of sweat on your brow and a growl 

In your belly youre scared to let through 

You thought you could keep me from loving 

And you thought you could feed on my soul 

But while you were busy destroyin my life 

What was half in me has become whole 

While you were lookin the other way 

While you had your eyes closed 

While you were lickin your lips 

'Cause I was miserable 

While you were sellin your soul 

While you were tearin a hole in me 

I was taking control 

Now I have taken control, control 

Now I have taken control, control 

Now I have taken control, control 

So this is how it feels 

To breath in the summer air 

To feel the sand between my toes 

And love inside my ear 

All those things 

That you taught me to fear 

I've got them in my garden now 

And youre not welcome here, come here 

Come a little bit closer 

Let me look at you 

I gave you the benefit 

Of the doubt, it's true 

But keep in mind, my darling 

Not every saint is a fool 

While you were lookin the other way 

While you had your eyes closed 

While you were lickin your lips 

'Cause I was miserable 

While you were sellin your soul 

While you were tearin a hole in me 

I was taking control 

Now I have taken control, I was taking control 

Now I have taken control, control, control 

Don't you mess with me 

This cannot be all that there is to life 

Because in our confrontation with an enormous and cold universe 

There is something comical to the idea 

That we can really inforce our will on humanity 

Power corrupts 

It's your world, do with it what you want 

No, that's not the way to do it, power 

That's not the way to do it, paradox 

No, it's your world, no, it's your world 

No, it's your world, no 

It's your world 

Its scaring me 

[Inaudible] 

And at the end of it all lies of course the final 

Phenomenon of deterioration, entropy 

Which is a predictable deterioration 

When the creative energy ceases
