I Need Control

Composed by：William Behlendorf/Samantha Elizabeth Creighton

Every time that I try to speak

It feels so calculated

If I say what I really mean

It's like you see me naked

Not a word until I was three

The doctors were elated

Thank God there was nothing wrong

And everything's fine

Always on the edge of my seat

Never the right position

Check the doors are locked one two three

Flip on and off the switches

Something bad could happen to me

House will burn if I didn't

Make sure that the stove was off

Now everything's fine

I need control

I need control

What will I do

If I lose

My mind

Hurt someone else

Or myself

I'm terrified

These crazy thoughts

They won't stop

Oh my

I feel the worst in me

Better tread carefully

I need control

Everybody please disappear

I'm feeling claustrophobic

Way past capacity in here

Hard to be easy-going

Suffocating's my biggest fear

I can't breathe in this clothing

Leave before something goes wrong

And everything's fine

I need control oh oh oh ooh

I need control oh oh oh ooh

What will I do

If I lose

My mind

Put someone else

On myself

I'm terrified

These crazy thoughts

They won't stop

Oh my

I feel the worst in me

Better tread carefully

What will I do

If I lose

My mind

Put someone else

On myself

I'm terrified

These crazy thoughts

They won't stop

Oh my

I feel the worst in me

Better tread carefully

I need control

Make a mistake

I'll go insane

What can I say

I'm a perfectionist

Slave to my brain

Circle the drain

What can I say

Get me a therapist

I need I need I need I need

Get me a therapist

Get me a therapist

I need I need I need I need

I need I need I need I need

I need I need I need I need

I need I need I need control

I need I need I need I need

I need I need I need I need

I need I need I need I need

I need I need I need control
