Not Over Yet
Control Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well I've combed through every inch of every skyline
Trying to find your stardust in the air
And your vision has gone missing from my nighttime
Just promise me that you'll still meet me there
Up above me
On a path that's leading right back to the start
Of my
Self destruction
Well I've searched through every inch of every wasteland
Trying to find some meaning in the sand
And your mission has gone missing from my sightline
Just promise me that you'll still take my hand
Lead me back home
On a path that's leading right back to the start
Of my
Self destruction
I've been craving your explanation
I've been losing sight in my frustration
Up above me
On a path that's leading right back to the start
Of my
Self destruction
Lead me back home
On a path that's leading right back to the start




Of my
Self destruction
