Like a needle extracting the source A promise given taken by force Your moving finger sculpting my mind Led to believe and follow you blind Seeds of deceit planted under the skin A hidden chip designed to steal from within Breaking my will so you can play with your toy Distorted pleasure from the hope you destroy I am under control I am under control I feel your hands on my soul I am under control Got a fever, sweating it out Vultures waiting in the shadows of doubt At any moment the tables will turn For now I run while the bridges burn I look for shelter from the storming skies Avoid the watchers with their roving eyes Escape the trance that held my feet to the ground Break away to where I'll never be found I am under control I am under control I feel your hands on my soul I am under control All of this time in crime I played the quiet fool For all that I am, it's been impossibly cruel All of what's mine designed to make a better you To make a better you I am under control I am under control I feel your hands on my soul I am under control Under control Under control Under control Under control Under control Under control
