Out of Control
SKULP.IN Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And made up myself
So crash and splash
I fight
With my obsession.
I feel the tension
A need for caution
I would like to show
Look into my head
I don't
Know why I'm so harsh
I could be so brash
I'm going to clash
'Cause I feel
I can always show
my everything to you
If this moment was for me
I try to hear
Lend my ear
Voices inside
One link to join it all again
All the things I knew
The world I trusted
Would be the same
If I
Remained inside my
Protective castle
And kept my eyes closed
Words are just a toy
That people play with
It's superficial
I know
The proof is out there
The hidden answer
That someone left there
'Cause I feel
I can always show
my everything to you
If this moment was for me
I try to hear
Lend my ear
Voices inside
One link to join it all
If I can
Go travel back in time
Start it all over again
Follow a calculated
path to live but
One day I
Will come across the same
Feeling again and know
that it will carry over
'Cause I feel
I can always show
my everything to you
If this moment was for me
I try to hear
Lend my ear
Voices inside
One link to join it all
So it goes again

Line by Line Meaning
I have copied you
I have imitated you and taken on your characteristics
And made up myself
And created my own identity from your influence
So crash and splash
So I collide and make a big impact
I fight
I struggle
With my obsession
With my intense fixation
I feel the tension
I sense the pressure
A need for caution
A necessity for carefulness
I would like to show
I wish to reveal
Cut open my skull
Open up my mind
Look into my head
See my thoughts and emotions
I don't
I do not
Know why I'm so harsh
Understand why I am cruel
I could be so brash
I can be impulsive
I'm going to clash
I will have conflicts
'Cause I feel
Because I have the sensation
I can always show
I can always reveal
my everything to you
all of myself to you
If this moment was for me
If this particular time was meant for me
I try to hear
I attempt to listen
Lend my ear
Give my attention
Voices inside
Inner voices within me
One link to join it all again
One connection to unite everything once more
All the things I knew
All the knowledge I possessed
The world I trusted
The world I had faith in
Would be the same
Would remain unchanged
If I
If I
Remained inside my
Stood within my
Protective castle
Defensive fortress
And kept my eyes closed
And refused to see
Words are just a toy
Language is merely a plaything
That people play with
That people manipulate
It's superficial
It is shallow
I know
I am aware
The proof is out there
The evidence exists
The hidden answer
The undisclosed solution
That someone left there
That someone left behind
'Cause I feel
Because I have the sensation
I can always show
I can always reveal
my everything to you
all of myself to you
If this moment was for me
If this particular time was meant for me
I try to hear
I attempt to listen
Lend my ear
Give my attention
Voices inside
Inner voices within me
One link to join it all
One connection to bring it all together
If I can
If it is possible for me
Go travel back in time
Return to the past
Start it all over again
Begin anew from the beginning
Follow a calculated
Pursue a carefully planned
path to live but
way of life but
One day I
Eventually I
Will come across the same
Will encounter the identical
Feeling again and know
Sensation once more and realize
that it will carry over
that it will persist
'Cause I feel
Because I have the sensation
I can always show
I can always reveal
my everything to you
all of myself to you
If this moment was for me
If this particular time was meant for me
I try to hear
I attempt to listen
Lend my ear
Give my attention
Voices inside
Inner voices within me
One link to join it all
One connection to bring it all together
So it goes again
So it happens once more
