SELF CONTROL
Paffendorf Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
For you
Creature of the night
Go and try to fight
All night
I ain't take your self control
It's all about self control
I ain't take your self control
You take myself you take my self control
You take myself you take my self control
You take myself you take my self control
You take myself you take my self control
You take myself you take my self control
See my signs
Feel my voice
Hear my order
Listen to my voice
I ain't take your self control
I ain't take your self control
You take myself you take my self control
You take myself you take my self control
It's all about self control
You take myself you take my self control
You take myself you take my self control
You take myself you take my self control
