Don't Lose Control
Galahad Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's so damp in here and I've lost all my reasons
It's so cold in here and now I'm shivering, shivering
It's so dark in here and I've lost all my direction
And I don't know quite where I stand anymore

But I will win through, though I think I need you now
I will overcome the pain that you put me through
Yes, I will survive, I will overcome the heartache
That you put me through
That you put me through
I will overcome it

I've lost all my senses, I can't see or feel the right way
And my vision is blurred and I have no balance left at all
And it's still so dark in here, I've got to find my lost direction
Before I lose control for good

But I will win through, though I think I need you now
I will overcome the pain that you put me through
Yes, I will survive, I will overcome the heartache
That you put me through
That you put me through
I will overcome it

I've got to rise up again
Leave the embers to cool
I've got to walk out of here
In one piece, I will win through
Because I'm leaving this time
Going to find a new way of living
Yes, I'm leaving for good
Because I know just where my interests lie
And that's not with you, no
That's not with you, no

Yes I will win through, though I think I need you now
I will overcome the pain that you put me through
Yes, I will survive, I will overcome the heartache
That you put me through

Whatever you do, whatever you say, wherever you go
Don't you lose control




Don't you lose control
Don't lose it
