Out of Control Songtext
von Tears for Fears

Goodbye desperado
If they hadn′t sucked out all the poison from your veins
You'd be dead by now
Too late Frida Kahlo
You could have the power of the phoenix and the flame
If you knew just how

Come the hour
Come the mantra
Repeat in defeat with the pots and the pans
Walk away
Walk on water
They′re young
Then they're old
Then they don't give a damn

Yeah but you
You′re out of control
Your babies are changing
You′re out of control


Sleepless situation
Shake by the clatter of the clinking on the bars of your private jail
Twisted ultimatum
Searching for a lifeline or a band aid
For your sins in the morning mail

Tow the line
Floating islands
They're here and they′re now
But they're oceans away
Tie them down
Baby lions
You′ll bleed and you'll plead
And you′ll beg them to stay

Yeah but you
You're out of control
Your babies are changing
You're out of control

Don′t be afraid now
Your cover is blown
Don′t shed a tear now
Your babies are grown
