Out Of Control
Negative Zero Lyrics

The lyrics to "Out of Control" by Negative Zero express a sense of detachment and emotional turmoil. The opening lines suggest a feeling of numbness and void, as the singer states, "There's something in my brain, and I feel nothing." This emptiness is causing the singer to feel insane and out of control. They are seeking an escape, represented by running away and catching the fastest plane or train. Despite their attempts to distance themselves from their emotions, they still feel overwhelmed and unable to find solace.

The chorus reinforces this theme of losing control, as the repeated phrase "Out of control" emphasizes the singer's lack of stability and the feeling of being consumed by their emotions. The second verse repeats this pattern, with the added element of feeling high, suggesting that the singer may be turning to substances to try and numb their feelings.

The bridge delves into a sense of longing for someone they are without, expressing the singer's confusion and wondering how they ended up in this state without that person. It also touches on their self-destructive coping mechanisms, such as thinking and drinking. The final stanza hints at the passage of time and the lack of change in their emotional state, further highlighting the singer's longing and frustration.

Overall, "Out of Control" by Negative Zero conveys the experience of feeling detached, overwhelmed, and unable to find stability or escape from emotional turmoil.
