Out of Control

I give my love

It feels right on the minute

But the vacancy arrives when I’m no longer in it


I should stay here

But I can’t stand up without my shame

I have to pack my things

It feels wrong as I walk down the lane


It’s a pretty window

The walls around it are playing cards

I let myself breathe a little

And I let down my guard


I’m shaking by that window

Wondering when it’s going to end

But the feeling starts all over

When it comes around again


I’ll stand with you in the black

Where there is no way of knowing

The ocean lays like a blanket

Tortured by the wind blowing


And there on the sand

I’ll lay you down and sing

While the cosmos watch over us

 

A thread in the grand scheme of things
