Out of Control
Henry Tigan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Deep inside I'm screaming your name daily
My heart is done and I'm running out of control
You don't have to treat me like you never loved me baby
Deep inside I'm screaming your name daily
My heart is done and I'm running out of control
Girl your killing me stop mistreating me oh why
You don't wanna comfortable me and kissing me
Stop insulting me baby your hurting my love softly
Tell me why your teasing me kyusamu Bambi
You don't have to treat me like you never loved me baby
Deep inside I'm screaming your name daily
My heart is done and I'm running out of control
You don't have to treat me like you never loved me baby
Deep inside I'm screaming your name daily
My heart is done and I'm running out of control
You know the trouble wanna love but you don't
Have to play with me and know that your love is true
All the fears that you having inside
Baby girl it's a natural thing to do
I always wanted a pretty like you in my
Life I can't believe it's your lips again
But when your rubbing down my body and you treat me right
I'm glad it's you that's talkin' me in (baby girl I wanna know)
You don't have to treat me like you never loved me baby
Deep inside I'm screaming your name daily
My heart is done and I'm running out of control
You don't have to treat me like you never loved me baby
Deep inside I'm screaming your name daily
My heart is done and I'm running out of control
All this time I never thought that I'll ever feel the way I do
I never thought I ever had to be the one
Baby girl that was walking away from you
But you gave me no choice you nearly
Crashed my heart and now it has to end like this
Now your waking up alone cos you wrecked us apart and I
Know I'm the one that's missed (baby girl I wanna know)
You don't have to treat me like you never loved me baby
Deep inside I'm screaming your name daily
My heart is done and I'm running out of control
You don't have to treat me like you never loved me baby
Deep inside I'm screaming your name daily
My heart is done and I'm running out of control
In "Out of Control" by Henry Tigan, the singer expresses his feelings of hurt and frustration towards his partner who is mistreating him. Despite the pain, he still has feelings for her and wishes for her to stop treating him like she doesn't love him. He feels like he's losing control of his heart and needs her to stop hurting him.
The repetition of the chorus emphasizes the singer's desperation for his partner to acknowledge his love for her and to treat him with the respect he deserves. The use of the phrase "deep inside I'm screaming your name daily" shows that the singer is struggling to deal with the pain and his desire to be with her. He knows that she's not fulfilling his emotional needs, but he can't help the way he feels for her.
The third verse highlights the mixed emotions of the singer towards his partner. He acknowledges that he wants her in his life, but she's causing him pain by not reciprocating his love. The use of the phrase "rubbing down my body and you treat me right" shows that he does appreciate the moments when she does show him love and affection. However, he can't ignore the pain she's causing him and knows that the relationship cannot continue if the suffering persists.
Overall, "Out of Control" is a heartfelt ballad about the pain and frustration that comes with unrequited love. It shows the emotional turmoil that the singer goes through as he tries to make sense of his feelings and the relationship with his partner.
