Colony House Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When do I feel it in my bones?
That kind of breathing
Whispering mysteries to my soul
I think its when I lose control
I think its when I lose control
We can't keep fighting for a steady life so
I'll ride the wind like a feather toward home
When do I see it?
When do I understand this better?
After the ashes
When will the pieces come together?
I think its when I lose control
I know it when I lose control
But we can't keep fighting for a steady life so
I'll ride the wind like a feather toward home
The wind like a feather toward home
With hope
With hope
When I die my body will say goodbye
To the things that held me down
To the fear that kept my hands tied
When I'm gone my heart will carry on
Past the valleys I called my home
Where my questions and concerns will piece together
Until then
I'll ride the wind like a feather toward home
The wind like a feather toward home
When the bows about to break
From the wind that hell can throw
And my bodies shot
From fighting it with everything
When will the calm that was here before
Drag the clouds of sorrows storm?
I think its when I lose control
I know its when I lose control
We can't keep fighting for a steady life
The lyrics to Colony House's "Lose Control" express a desire to let go and surrender to life's mysteries. The singer is questioning when they feel a sense of purpose, a sense of direction deep in their bones. They mention the idea that losing control allows them to find a sense of understanding and clarity. They seem to be struggling with wanting to have a steady and predictable life, yet also long for something more profound, something that whispers to their soul. This sentiment is echoed in the chorus where the singer decides to "ride the wind like a feather towards home," suggesting that they will let go of their fears and trust in the universe's guidance.
The lyrics then delve into the idea of mortality, where the singer acknowledges that when they die, they will let go of all the things that held them back and will find eternal peace. They talk about how their heart carries on past the places they called home and how eventually, their questions and concerns will all piece together. The song concludes with a repetition of the earlier sentiment; losing control is the only way to find peace and that they won't keep fighting for a steady life.
Overall, "Lose Control" serves as a reminder to embrace life's unpredictability and to trust in the universe's plan. The lyrics are beautifully written and provide a sense of hope and clarity that is difficult to find in today's turbulent world.

From trying too hard to overcome the challenges instead of letting go and allowing life to guide me
When will the calm that was here before
When will things return to a state of peace and tranquility
Drag the clouds of sorrows storm?
When will the sorrow and pain pass by and tranquility can take over?
