Absence of Control Songtext
von Outline in Color

I swore I′d tear this city down
Brick by brick
I still wear the scars across my back
From the knife you slipped
I hung the traitors by their necks
I built this dream
On blood and sweat
I stood to face the jury of wolves


And now I've spent a lifetime
Living as a sinking ship
I only ever lifted spirits
When I went to take a sip
Now the hounds have come to get me
I′m still shipwrecked where you left me
If I don't make it
Then don't forget me
Don′t forget the heart I sold
I face this struggle every day
It′s year 8 now
I'm not afraid
I′m facing facts this life is all I know
And we revel in the absence of control
