We do these things to keep in control not realizing that we weren't in control in the first place.


Brittle

The first time,
I didn't feel a thing, 'til later,
Like a free trip to Six Flags,
I digged it and wanted more,
That why what I had was a sample,
Now it's time for the price tag,
I'll pay it, use it, and this time,
I'm in control,
And the fun revovles around me,

The next time,
It just wasn't kicking in,
I'm mixing concoctions,
My times are my investments,
Nobody knows, or do they?,
They're everywhere watching someone,
Better not be me,
I got something for them,
I like wild times, but I like things that spin better,
Like my life, people say,
I bought, I use more, and this time,
I know I'm in control,
I know what I'm doing,

The last time,
It was too strong,
Things are spinning around me,
This wasn't supposed to hurt like this,
"I'll do anything for it", is now a kind and polite expression,
I'm a piece of property for everyone with an option,
Why is this hurting like this?,
I can't control this, I can't control this!!!!,
The lights, the lights are so pretty now,
So, so pretty,
It slipped through my fingers,
I let my life slip through these fingers,

The dancer moves without a trace,
