Poe - HauntedControl'Cause she's liable to grow up mean Surprised you to find that I'm laughing? You thought that you'd find me in tears You thought I'd be crawling the walls Like a tiny mosquito and trembling 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 looking the other way While you had your eyes closed While you were licking your lips 'Cause I was miserable While you were selling your soul While you were tearing a hole in me I was taking control Now I have taken control Now I have taken 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 you're scared to let through You thought you could keep me from loving You thought you could feed on my soul But while you were busy destroying my life What was half in me has become whole While you were looking the other way While you had your eyes closed While you were licking your lips 'Cause I was miserable While you were selling your soul While you were tearing a hole in me I was taking control Now I have taken control Now I have taken control... So this is how it feels To breath in the summer air The 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 you're 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 (Don't) While you were looking the other way (You mess) While you had your eyes closed (With me) While you were licking your lips 'Cause I was miserable (Don't) While you were selling your soul (You mess) While you were tearing a hole in me I was taking control Now I have taken control Now I have taken control... Don't you mess with me Father: 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 enforce 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! Control it! Control it! Daughter : This is scaring me. Daughter : I live at the end of a 5 and 1/2 minute hallway I live at the end of a 5 and 1/2 minute hallway Father: And at the end of it all lies, of course, the final phenomenon of deterioration - entropy, which is a predictable deteriortion when the creative energy ceases: Everything has evolved. Daughter: Why are you always so serious?! Index |
